New Toshiba PDA

Toshiba has been been making a pretty big splash in the Pocket PC world by releasing new PDAs almost as fast as Sony does for the Palm platform. The newest from Toshiba is the e330 which shares the same form as the super-slender e310, but replaces the 206 MHz ARM processor with a 300 MHz X-Scale processor and adds an extra 32 megs of RAM for a total of 64. USB-host is possible with the optional cable (printers, hard drives, keyboards and other peripherals, depending on driver availability). Price is just $350 — pretty low for a Pocket PC.

Also available today is a flip cover that should fit it; The Pocket Solution is a flip cover designed for many different PDAs, and is selling now for $20. For those who have wanted a flip cover for their PDA, this might be an inexpensive solution, though the use of Velcro and (apparent) lack of ability to lay flat may turn some off.
