I gotta admit sometimes my Acer Aspire One netbook is so slow on XP.
But their LinPus is so inflexible. SO I am curious on seeing ads for
WinCE netbooks. What do you give up? How different it it from my old
HTC ARM smartphone? Do standard WIndows apps run on these CE machines
or do you need a CE version?

I've never seen, let alone tried, a Windows CE Netbook, so I'm not the
best source of info. But a quick response before this newsgroup closes
(see "Final Reminder - Microsoft Responds to the Evolution of
Community") is better than nothing.

My hunch is that the netbooks "feel" more like "big" Windows than your
smartphone. I'm sure none of them run apps built for "big" Windows.
