Gizmodo
Sharp's new RD-CX300 may actually be a pocket dictionary worth buying. While Webster has dominated the market for years, filling our heads with useless, 5+ syllable words, Sharp has finally found the dictionary's long latent potential: a video player.
This "multimedia super dictionary" stores 20GB of useless words, MP3s, MPEG4s and WMVs. Plus, it packs full QWERTY, an SD slot and voice recording. The 4.3" TFT 260K-color display is just enough power to support the black and white nature of print, especially if you are using the built-in ebook functionality.
Our photo is of a predecessor that should be similar to the new $500, 1.2" thick model when it's released this month in Korea. A tiny picture on Sharp's site shows the RD-CX300 could come in red. Oooohhh.

very different considering the offerings I've seen from Sharp in the past...interesting nonetheless.
Neato!
..which is apparently not a word, according to my spell check. So I guess I really need this gizmo.
If its anything like my 15 year old Wizard, it will last until long after the support is gone.
Anyone know where to find 15 year old Wizard peripherals and software for less than the cost of a new PDA?
Anyway, I like the colors.
i thought the title said "pimp" not "pmp." gotta stop drinking 1800.
If it had a swivel touchscreen, it'd be a nice replacement for the discontinued Zaurus line.
