Specs: Screen Size: 240x320, 65k color, 3.5" reflective-TFT; and Screen Size: 176x220, 65k color, 3" reflective-TFT. He also wrote as has already been stated, that he's still looking for people who will develop commercial-quality software for the PDA's. More details at Amiga.org here."

In reply to Comment 7 (Don Cox):
Hi
Thats also my understanding even though i am not sure if your point 1 & 2 won't be the same. I dont know if your point 1 (running a cut down runtime version) will not be the same as running a (smal basic) hosted version of AmigaDE?
Anyway I think your right about the minimal cut down version will be used for PDA content.
""My understanding is that are three "weights" of AmigaDE:
1. Minimal cut-down runtime version to allow an Amiga program to run
on another OS
2. Hosted DE running as a second OS on top of another (which supplies
the hardware drivers) - this is how the SDK is working
3. Full independent native OS with its own drivers for all
PCI cards and other hardware
My guess is that the PDA content is to use 1.""
