Can we have a thread for the smart computers of yesteryear? I want to talk about Pocket PC, PDAs, basically anything from before the iPhone turned all pocket devices into toys and fashion items.

I bought this thing on kickstarter and hope to be able to fit it into my pocket to kinda have a PC in my pocket everywhere.

Not sure if I'll actually use it

Be realistic. You aren't going to type shit on a 5.5" device anyway and a virtual keyboard is more than enough.

Virtual keyboards work but they're shit and uncomfortable to use for long periods of time.

I doubt some dudes with a Kickstarter are going to be able to create a comfortable Windows experience on a split screen, not to mention the nightmare it would be if you wanted to use GNU/Linux. A physical keyboard is the more realistic option.
