<DIV>List,</DIV>
<DIV>I'm in the market to upgrade from my small Palm Pilot to a much =
larger
capacity unit. I'm looking at the new Dell PDAs. The question I have =
as is
with regard to hrtz speed. I'm trying to visualize (practically =
speaking) the
difference in performance of 400 hrtz vs 612 hrtz. In a home computer =
with
multifunctions occurring, the difference in performance is a =
no-brainer.
But on a handheld I trying to justify the need for the additional =
speed. I
guess if one were to be playing video type clips it would be =
understandable.
But I'm thinking of running Reyburns RCT, along with my entire =
database.
I'm interested in those using the Ipaqs and the likes who using their =
devices
to the hilt. My quandary is needed performance, quality of =
performance vs
battery life needed to support such a big platform. </DIV>
<DIV>By the way the wave of PDAs are up to 612 hrtz with 128 mgs =
of
memory. Pretty impressive!</DIV>
