Graham refers to a Story on ZDNet UK and says: Sharp will be releasing their Zaurus PDA (which runs AmigaDE) worldwide early next year, running on Linux. Sharp expects to sell 1 million PDAs in the year after releasing it abroad (in addition to the 500,000 it will sell this year), which is a nice large market for Amiga to target, especially if a lot of quality AmigaDE applications are released.

Posted by David Shipman on 27-Jun-2001 22:00 GMT | 1 million?
It still says 7 million units of PDA sales on amiga.com (don't make me dig up the url)
Have Amiga got some other PDA partners hiding away in the shadows, or are Sharp just a bit less confident in their product than Amiga? |

Posted by Michael Jantzen on 27-Jun-2001 22:00 GMT | How could a PDA run DE - if I'm not mistaken DE stands for "Development Environment"...
Developer OS's are notoriously buggy and resource hungry (they usually have debugging symbols installed) |
