Why you should wait for Dell’s handhelds
Unless you need a handheld device tomorrow, my advice to those who are looking for a PDA is to wait and see what Dell comes up with. While scant details are available, Dell officials have indeed confirmed that the company is about to dive into that market and that units could appear in time for the holiday buying season.
How can I recommend something that makes vaporware look like a shipping product? It’s simple. Not counting printers, Dell has a very straight-forward model for doing business: It takes the same, relatively standard off-the-shelf parts (Intel processors, Microsoft operating systems, memory, displays, etc.) that its competition is using, integrates those parts into something that works well, puts that something in a cardboard box, and sells the same system everyone else sells–but for a lot less money.”
