Is there a Tapwave Zodiac in your future? (new handheld)

What do you think? The next Game Boy, or the next Game.com?

Price is the main concern, at $300 for the base model, it's a bit much for a handheld game console, but for a Palm OS 5 PDA, it's about average (it is also a Palm 5 PDA). My second concern is that is only going to be sold online, not in stores. Third and last is the restrictive SDK license, don't expect much freeware, and it seems to be incompatable with the GNU license (the only way for a program to use all the buttons and stick is to go through the SDK).

At least they are giving out the 2D SDK for free, and it's compatable with Palm OS apps (ohh, 15 versions of Space Invaders!).

The article now has a picture of the actual device, instead of a drawing.

Hmm... I figured there would be more people talking about this thing, considering the threads about wanting a handheld with a better more PDA like screen, and those wanting a more 'modern', more powerful handheld.
