One kind-of complaint I am having with Familiar/Handhelds is that the software
advances very slowly for the H/W. Now there are new 128MB iPaqs running
400MHz PXA CPUs, but Familiar/GPE or OPIE still just cover the 250MHz SA 64MB
RAM scheme of things.

I don't think that these machines should be relegated to second-place, when
someone doesn't know what else to do with it because they have a new toy. I'd
really like to see a truly functional handheld running full-blown Linux and
applications so that it is a *usefull* device. I understand that this is
somewhat the goal for Intimate, so why is Intimate all but inexistent on the
new handheld machines?

Mateo.
