Hey everyone, I'm going to Tokyo, Japan during Christmas break, and I'd like to know if there's any place, like, where Casio gives out for free, future PPCs for people to test. I doubt there is such a place, but it doesn't hurt to ask ;-)

Japanese people pay more for electronics than we do in the US - even though the product was made in their country.<br><br>Dan East

There are a new lineup of 3D accelerated Pocket PC's comming out, the tentative release date is 2003.  The speed of the processors are not yet set in stone, however, they are going to be significantly faster than the 206MHz current models.<br><br>Dan2950

A good friend of mine works in one of the departments of the Pocket PC industry (I'd rather not reveal the company), he quite often informs me of news that hasn't quite gotten out much to the public yet.  If you have any specific questions about anything, I'd be happy to find out more.
