I have another question :P about w1060. Can you put Linux on it? Like ARM Ubuntu? I really like Linux but now I'm thinking about the w1060 but it only has WinCE which is also great but Ubuntu is better :P ( personal thing

)

The reason for my question is because with GPS and a 16GB SD card a w1060 is still $30 cheaper then SmartQ V7 with the same 16GB SD card, according to this site

@Skyline:But a w1060 only accept T-flash(microSD) and not SD right?

@Skyline:A amoled screen would be awesome because it consumes like a 10x less current then an LCD, but better would be pixel Qi. It combines both e-ink with full color and a 'high' framerate, and it consumes equally or a little more than e-inkt

In the (near?

) future there will be 3Dtv's and I was wondering whether someone will also come with a 3D MID/PMP that would be awesome :P or perhaps not we will see it then

Edit: So w1060 doesn't come with storage? Or is it only enough for the WinCE and nothing else? Because otherwise it is impossible
