Mangas are usually (except covers, and maybe the first couple of pages) in black and white anyway, magazines, comics, and textbooks could all benefit more. Manga would primarily benefit from a higher dpi due to some of the really tiny writing used.

For a comparision of performance, it should be slightly faster than the HTC Excalibur/T-mobile Dash that came out in 2006. They have the same ARM platform, 266 MHz vs 201MHz, and twice the ram. You could run NES, SNES, and genesis emulators; and even then the SNES and genesis will run slow.

The nintendo DS runs on a ARM9 processor running at 67 MHz and an ARM7TDMI running at 33.5MHz, this runs on an ARM9 processor running at 266MHz. Somehow I don't see the DS as having more processing power.

"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
