New topic area on HPCFactor

yes it is

I see thcrw739's not the only one who's changed his avatar.

Yep! I changed my biggest catch (of a cod: 102cm and 10.5kg) to my favorite squad (of HPC's: Sig3, J728, MP900C, and Skeye.pad SL). Actually, my recent catch was a like-new J720 with dock and sync cable for $60.

poo. i got 720 for 45$ with all accessories and more, 2-2.5 yrs ago =)

I think my Netbook Pro for $80 is a better deal than either of those.

Yeah, my deal is not as sweet as yours. I still have a lot to learn to get better deals. Maybe, my next target is a NBP with a target price of $80.

I had better deals than that

Well, you've had free H/PCs - kinda hard to beat that.

Was just thinking,

If we did do a gps section it might be an idea to go through and move some of the previous discussions (more recent ones - maybe last 3 months) into the section to get people intrested and having a look at some of the things people have already done.

When I compared several PNA's resolution, I realized iPhone has the same resolution (480x320) as HPC's (640x240). So, a PNA with 480x272 resolution is fairly good for CE fans. Pharos' Drive 140 is a WM5 (CE 5.0) device with such a resolution. Of course, we'd want a PNA with 640x480 and integrated WiFi as a more powerful CE device. In this direction, my Dell Axim x51v already satisfied these requirements: VGA, WiFi, BT, WM6, and more. So, I don't need a PNA for hack and play unless they are dirt cheap.

yeah, iphone is HVGA too, but not as wide screen, so less good for some things. :/

480x272 sucks.

iPaq 310 is a good candidate as it has a 800x480 resolution. Some people already hacked into its CE 5.0 and made SD WiFi working. There are quite some on ebay. If we can get it cheap, then it's a fun device for hack and play.

Gimme the core CE GUI in landscape mode on a Pocket PC and we'll talk.
