Handheld Computers

Overview Any small, mobile device that provides computing and information storage and retrieval, and that can be easily carried and used, can be called a handheld computer. Often such devices are referred to as personal digital assistants or PDAs. Handheld computers are generally small enough to fit into the palm of the hand and can be carried comfortably in a jacket pocket. Currently the majority of handheld computers on the market are tablet designs. This technical paper focuses on handheld computers that have been primarily designed for computing purposes (such as Pocket PCs and Palm devices), rather than phone-centric handheld and ultra portable computers.
