The New Pocket PCs


One of the Editors' Choice–winning products in this story has a 400-MHz processor and 256MB of memory, and it runs a version of Microsoft Windows. We could very well be talking about one of the top PCs in our blockbuster issue circa 1998—full-fledged desktop computers that generally cost more than $2,000. Or we could be talking about today's multitasking smartphones. Call them pocket PCs if you like, because they've gone way beyond just making calls.
