Exactly. CE is just a kernel...it is not Windows Mobile or that godawful Win9x-esque shell they throw on some CE devices. If their shell for it is nice, intuitive, and responsive, it doesn't matter if it runs on CE, Linux, FreeBSD, or a popcorn kernel for that matter.

And don't forget, that Windows Phone 7 thingy everyone is so gaga over runs on CE 6.0.]]>Mar 1st 2010 12:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Mar 1st 2010 5:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/
Nothing at all. But why on earth wouldn't you throw in Bluetooth???? I mean if this is going to be a GPS device (Which would be MY primary use for this device) why not add hands free calling into the mix??? oh well, so freak'n close to an almost awesome device.... Hopefully they're listening and add that in on the next release.]]>Mar 1st 2010 9:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/It really doesn't matter what the underlying OS is in this case.

So it would be better to say you wished for a Snapdragon 2 or Tegra 2 :-P]]>Mar 1st 2010 12:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/
I love how people rave about a chip in a new unreleased device, it says Apple on it so it must be genius. Yes and mice only needed one button and IBM G4 & G5 chips were faster than Intel, Steve lies with the best of them.]]>Mar 1st 2010 12:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Feb 28th 2010 11:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/
The short answer is 'no'. The Archos 5 can reach most of your specs on paper but is not a wise use of your money IMHO (the thing lags, glitches, doesn't handle music files that well,etc.)

I wanted the exact device you described, but in the end settled for an ipod classic 160(I created a parallel library of apple lossless from my flac files).

I am pretty happy with my purchase, but would have jumped at a slate like media device with good SQ and tons of storage. In around 2 years the ipod touch will have over 120GB of flash storage, more ram, bigger screen (most likely...), and a faster CPU so it might actually fit you spec sheet. I really wish ZUNE would have kept the hard drive player line by releasing a hard drive model zuneHD. ]]>Feb 28th 2010 11:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/
*Is happily using my Zune 120 that I bought brand new for $200 on eBay over the holiday break*

The Zune 80/120 kills the iPod Classic. Should have hit up the eBays my friend, though the Classic ain't bad I wish someone would bring back HDD based PMPs even if they have a premium over flash based ones. There obviously is a market for it.]]>Feb 28th 2010 11:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/
I will soon be running it through a line out dock and an amp soon so the Zune and the ipod should be fairly similar in sound. :D The new 160GB classic has vastly improved SQ of previous classics. With the LOD it should sound superb.

Battery life was/is a big issue for me so I did end up going with the ipod over the Zune. But like I said, if there was a new hard drive zune with 160GB I would have bought it . Regardless, I have lossless audio, I can always switch over to Zune if they ever release another high capacity player.

Here hoping that they do. The ipod classic needs some competition. ]]>Mar 1st 2010 12:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Mar 1st 2010 1:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Mar 1st 2010 4:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Feb 28th 2010 11:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Feb 28th 2010 11:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Feb 28th 2010 11:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Mar 1st 2010 12:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Feb 28th 2010 11:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Feb 28th 2010 11:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/
I totally agree but it's Engadget so what do you expect? I only come here to stay relatively up to date with what's happening in the tech world but I try not to read their not so subtle subjective reporting. They unfortunately fall victim to tech trends instead of seeing through that like true gadget fans and geeks.]]>Mar 1st 2010 6:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Feb 28th 2010 11:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Feb 28th 2010 11:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/

CE based navigation units from China, Mio, Magellan and Navigon have been a pleasure to hack these past few years.

When I went to Central America,I had to leave my iPhone and Android at home because you can always torrent Latin American maps for CE.]]>Mar 1st 2010 12:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/Mar 1st 2010 3:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/mio-stuns-at-cebit-with-ultra-sleek-moov-v780-mid/oohh, it doesn't run android then the product must suck.
