Martin,

I imagine that currently you'll probably be stuck with the Pocket PC as the
current Palm OS is severly limited in resource for (moderatly) memory hungry
programs such as Cake.  In the next six months Palm will release OS 5 which will
be suitable for you app.

Regarding popularity - Palm has a worldwide lead.  I've had both (Palm III, iPAQ
and Palm m515) and I prefer the Palm on the basis of useability, size, weight
and battery life, although the Pocket PC does have a faster processor (until OS
5) and hence plays stronger Chess / Checkers.

Just my opinion,

Steve
