Not as dense as I suspected

I'm a bit surprised, stuff isn't packed in as densly as I expected. They really need more battery life on the colour models, i.e. need to get back to Palm V level of battery life. I've seen lots of people saying it just isn't possible. I would have thought that with a bit more integration (e.g. combine the Flash core with the CPU) that they could make space for a full length battery. It all comes down to cost, and ultimately number of units over which they can amortize costs, but from looking at the guts of this thing I do believe that it would be possible to make more volume available for the battery.

Oh boy...I thought that wasn't possible......

A Palm-Powered Handheld is the bread and butter for many people. Without a Palm-Powered Handheld, your progress is all for naught.
