Wireless Wonder CM-X270L: The PDAplus Smaller Than A Credit Card
An Israeli company called Compulab built a computer that fits a complete PDA into a device just two-thirds the size of a credit card. At only 4.4 x 6.6 cm, the CM-X270L makes even a 6.0 x 4.4 cm MiniPCI wireless card look big.
The CM-X270L almost breaks the law of physics by fitting an Intel XScale chip that runs Windows CE or Linux, half a gig of flash memory, 128MB of RAM, ACÂ’97 sound and a Philips 802.11b wireless interface inside its body. That’s not all, it even found enough room to cram other features not found on PDAs, such as a PCI bus, four USB host ports, and wired networking.
The wireless wonder costs about $47 which is really cheap. But the company only accept minimum bulk order of 10,000 units so stick to your humongous PDAs for now. They’re harder to lose.
