By: mikedemo @ 02:47 AM

Read this brief article about SOnys upcoming OS5 device. Looks like a NR series device, but will have some kick ass specs

Update: A Sony spokesperson emphasizes that this is more of a demonstration of the capabilities of Palm OS 5 on an ARM-based processor than a sneak peak of a future hardware release. According to him, it is premature to draw any conclusions about the hardware features of future handhelds based on this.

Do files get embarrassed when they get unzipped?

I sewem to recall that they said the same exact thing when they demoed the NRV70 at a conference a few months back (Palmsource?). A few weeks later it was out on the martket.

Sony have nothing to lose for pre-announcing products because they have a new product every month (or so it seems).

The biggest difference is that when the NR70 was showcased as a prototype, it was shown held in someone's hand. Since this one is sealed in a case, we don't know for a fact _yet_, that it's a functional device and not a breadboard attached to an NR70 screen.
