I don't know what you're basing this on.  The speed difference of the processors
*IS* definitely significant and the OS has little to do with it.  A Pocket
Genius version running on a 660 MHz PC is only 11 times faster than a 206 MHz
iPAQ.  The DragonBall is *MUCH* slower MHz for MHz.  I guess you will not
beleive me but wait until Tiger is ported to the PocketPC and you'll see a
significant speedup (i.e. x7) over a overclocked Palm - this is significant.
The only reason Tiger does so well against Pocket Fritz is the excellent core
programming by Christophe.

Regards,

Steve
