The Loox actually only uses a 300mhz Xscale. There is a preview of a Hitachi device, running CE.net & a 400mhz cpu (I posted pics somewhere). Either way, the future looks good!

Has the LOOX a 300 or 400MHz processor. The tech specs on fujitsu-siemens site says 400MHz while I've seen on other sites 300MHz. Or is there a difference between the Japanese and European model?
Maybe they upgraded it for the world launch yesterday ;)

Is it going to have USB host capabilities?

now that would be really cool I've got a H3870 and I'd love to be able to just plub in any old USB key board, the targus looks good but to expensive.

Oh yeh i think it's great that there are females participating and I don't think you should bag them.
