Title: QNX on iPAQ
Post by: eradicator on 18 August 2002, 22:19
i was visiting qnxzone(http://www.qnxzone.com) and noticed they have QNX running on an iPAQ, maybe it's just me.. but this seems like a "Good Thing"

that would be awesome if some PDA companies picked up on this. some screenshots are here: http://www.qnxzone.com/eQip/screenshots/ (http://www.qnxzone.com/eQip/screenshots/)

It'd be groovy to have QNX running on an iPAQ. I think the iPAQ is the only decent device Compaq's ever built. Sure beats the hell out of Windows Ultra-Crippled Edition.

Well, I have this wonderful CD sitting beside me...

It's called Microshaft Winblows 98 (or 99, or 00, or 01, or 02...)

I'm not kidding.  It was released by Palladium a while ago.  I must say it was worth ten bucks

Don't think I hate Windows, I'm using Windows XP to post this re-

STOP 0x1A DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE   :eek:

It'd be cool to see a PDA running off of an Alpha chip. :)
