Handhelds Vs Organizers

handheld.jpgThere was a time when your bag held a gadget known as a personal organizer that costs a couple of hundred bucks. They were the gadget to have and most office workers had them as a status symbol of the working class. Then came the ever smaller handheld computers that ran stripped down versions of your Laptop OS and everything changed overnight, they took the stage and everyone wanted one. Out with the PDA and in with the Handheld. Then Intel announces a new line of low-power processors they called the Atom that was combined with Centrino technology that allowed your Ultra-portable to become as powerful as your computer yet lighter than your keyboard. Advances in memory technology has flash drives replacing hard disks further extending the amount of power available. It will only be time when the computing power of your handheld would be equal to your gaming PC just with a smaller screen (you can use those magnifying gadgets they used on GameBoy’s). Besides, Man went to the moon with less computing power than your washing machine! The sky’s the limit.
