Now once iPak develop an iPak version running on a 660 MHz than we will see a difference of at least 200 Points against CT 14.6. Plus when I stated "NOT too noticeable" I meant in strength NOT in speed of course. Right now the diffefence in rating strenght between CT 14.6 with an overclocked palm at 54 MHz versus a PocketFritz iPaq 206 MHz is not greater than 45 points, therefore, NOT significantly noticeable comparing the price difference between the iPak and a Handspring visor.
