On the heels of its stunning acquisition announcement, HP announced the release of new Jornada handhelds. They’re the first to sport Intel’s new StrongARM 206 MHz processor, and the first machines to run PocketPC 2002. One would suppose that the Jornada and the iPaq lines are going to go head to head internally to see which one has a future. If this announcement is any indication, the Jornada team isn’t ready to roll over and concede to the more-popular iPaq now that they’re in the same company. Read Internet.com’s coverage.
Hmm…. ver intersting….
I would like to see one of these:

running BeOS, QNX, BSD, or Linux…
There are already projects underway to get Linux and xBSD running on these. See <a href=”http://www.handhelds.org/“>http://www.handhelds.org/.

Back in march, HP was even considering http://news.zdnet.co.uk/story/0,,s2084768,00.html”>dropping in favoe of Linux for the Jornada.
