Well, I know that the HP's run off of PA-RISCs, and that Phillips Velos are
SGI's. Also, theo ther processor support isn't in H/PC's, and it probably
won't be. x86's used in the Elan SC400 based devices, I know that they're
some mapping hanheld that uses that. PPC, and so forth will probably show
up in the Jupiter-class 2Lb devices.
Ciao,
Tim

Are you guys both smoking the same stuff? CE does not exist for PA-RISC
or SGI MIPS, and while it does exist for Acorn/Digital/Intel ARM, it
hasn't shipped on any real hardware platform that I know of.
It has shipped on a couple of NEC MIPS derivatives and Hitachi SH. There
is also support for ARM, PPC, and x86, but I haven't heard of any hardware
shipping for those platforms.

Most Windows CE devices are based on HP/NEC
PA-RISC (IIRC)
processors, or SGI MIPS processors.
Or Acorn/Digital StrongARM.
