Consider the Dell Streak, an Android (Froyo) minitablet/phone that's now
discontinued and available for cheap. It's 6.0" x 3.1" x 0.4" vs the DS's
5.9" x 3.3" x 1.1". It's got an 800 × 480 display an a 1 GHz Snapdragon CPU.
And it would double as a phone/camera/satnav/etc.  -Dave

 

 

Thanks Dave!  I will look at that.  So far, an iPhone is hard to beat.  It
isn’t great for spreadsheets, but I might need to deal with it anyway.  I am
looking for retinal displays that might work with an iPhone.  An iPad is
compelling enough that I am still looking for a good way to carry it in some
kind of small backpack arrangement.
