Quake 2 isn't playable on anyone's device.

All PocketPCs are practically the same, it's a very standardized platform. I would suggest the 400MHz Dell X5 PocketPC, because it is very cheap, but also just as fast as all the other PocketPCs out there. If you would like a list of benchmark speeds in PocketQuake just take a look over at the PocketQuake I forum's "Benchmark Archive" sticky thread near the top. It lists every device that has been benchmarked in PocketQuake at the default detail setting. Even then it's quite playable on my 400MHz device, and if you lower the graphics quality it will be even smoother.

yes, read the benchmark thread.

Unless you need the extra ram, get the $199 Dell and overclock it to 400Mhz. Works great!

He has 200 pounds, which is around $350 I believe. However, PocketPC prices overseas are much higher than in the US. Such as the H1910, it costs 265 pounds, which is about $430 dollars, when it really only costs $300 in the US.

[edit] yup, $326.47 cents
