It will NEVER overtake netbooks.

Running on ARM? say goodbye to running any applications you know and love. Say goodbye to your ipod, say goodbye to almost every piece of hardware you own that requires Windos or Mac.

This is just a beefed up PDA. No thanks.

I have an iMac as my main computer and a Dell Mini9 as my secondary computer, so yes im well aware its not meant to be your main computer. However i am well aware that program interoperability is a major point. I use my Mini for Office and iTunes along with VLC to stream dvds and a bunch of other programs made by small developers that would never be released on ARM.]]>Jun 2nd 2009 6:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/

Why? Linux runs very well on Arm and the apps are a recompile away :)]]>Jun 4th 2009 7:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/
Most of Debian's catalog is available on ARM. And there's a reason there are so many distros based on Debian, the repository of binaries is HUGE.

If there was a 30% return rate of Linux Netbooks, there will be a less than 30% return of these. This is lighter, faster, better looking and has a better battery life than most (all?) netbooks, and would run GNU/Linux or CE.]]>Jun 4th 2009 7:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/#1 you are a moron
#2 you lack knowledge and credibility to make such statements
#3 all your above statements are false.
#4 some ill-fingered half-brained mac users somehow coded over 25000 apps for the iPhone..
Imagine if Tegra was to represent even just 10% of the netbook marketshare ..
There would be zillions of people ready to adapt any application.

Plus Most Linux distros support ARM, so you only need to port the packages to the ARM architecture..

Running an obscure operating system on an obscure processor is suddenly a good idea. WinCE may have worked for PDA's (if that can be called a success, until PDA's were completely wiped out by cellphones), but it never worked as a standalone OS. ARM processors? They're ok, but again with 1/1000 of the code base for the x86 processor...

Even if you say that browsing is all you do on a netbook. I can guarantee it will be crappier than on any fully supported OS (like OsX,win or even lin; even though the obscure versions of linux they put on these netbooks aren't pretty either).

This is simply a nightmare. It won't run any of your programs. And even the simple things that it will do (browsing, IM) it will do terribly with updates and features either not arriving, or arriving 2 years after they make it to the desktop versions of the operating system.

Who thinks that this is a good idea? Engadget is on crack...]]>Jun 2nd 2009 4:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/Jun 2nd 2009 4:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/For normal Joe Sixpack it will be a real problem when it wont run any of the programs they have on their "standart" computer, or what they get on "standart" sites. This situation might change in the future (android, Symbian, various company backed linuy flavors, win mobile/CE/ pink), but for now its a niche product.

However for geeks (like the editors here, or most of the audience) this is big news.
android is getting mor porgrams everyday, ubuntu has also an arm version (or am i wrong iwth that?), and not the mention the countless linux distros /programms that run on arm.
those who know a bit about computers can do everything they need on it (after a bit of googling).

Windows CE version 1 is from 1996. Today is on version 6.

To all people whinning about CE. CE is just a barebone, meant to be ported to many different hardware possible. Most of the Applications/Integration/Shell stuff is the responsability of the OEM.

And yes, it is very easy to port applications written for XP to CE, providing that the XP developer followed some simply guidelines.

And its easier to port applications from Windows Mobile to CE, as they are almost 100% binary compatible (under the same processor, of course).]]>Jun 2nd 2009 9:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/Jun 2nd 2009 4:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/Jun 2nd 2009 5:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/02/video-tegra-based-mobinnova-elan-running-windows-ce-on-tegra-ro/
