It's certainly impressive, but the name absolutely sucks, so it doesn't sound good.

OK, so I've been looking at going PPC lately, but they really need sexier names. What's a LOOX (much less a "pocket" LOOX)? The overabundance of unnecessary syllables bothers me, but the spec's make up for it.

I haven't seen more of the spec's, and I don't read Looxish (or whatever language that is), so I'm wondering if it still has the CF card or just SD card expansion. I have several SD cards, but I'd like to get just one massive CF card for all my movies and such. Luckily, I wouldn't have to get a separate GPS card (!).

Also, does Quadband GSM/GPRS mean that I can slip my SIM card into this beast and start blabbing away (see "The Parrot")? Or is it for the data connection possibilities?

Maybe I'll just forgo the whole PPC-to-Mac thing and just sync to either my Tablet PC (slow Celeron) or Virtual PC on the Powerbook. I'm starting to really get into these PPC devices. Maybe I should investigate further...
