Return to Compulab EM-X270.
The EM-X270 is an embedded computer board, produced by Compulab, an Israel-based company specialising in Single Board Computers (SBC). The board has a range of optional components which can be specified for full mobile phone capabilities, and more (to a level similar to that of the Neo1973), as detailed below:
3.5" VGA (640x480)
Intel Xscale PXA270, 312/520MHz
128MB SDRAM, 100MHz, 32bit
512MB NAND flash, non-volatile
Quad-band Telit GE864 module [AT Command Set]
802.11b with a Philips chipset
Not yet supported by Linux (planned for December)
Bluetooth v2.0 + EDR
Navman Jupiter 32 [Data Sheet], with NMEA output
Li-Ion, charged over USB
USB 1.1, with host and slave capabilities
RS232, 16550 compatible
up to 16 dedicated lines, shared with keypad (if present)
Compulab has a strict sales policy: only to companies, only in large quantities, only if one evaluation board is bought
To make this device available for the open source developer community, there is an idea for a group purchase (Features EM-X270-C520-W-H-K + LCD35+KEYPAD+BAT10) organized by the [Handheld Linux Shop] which would come to approx. 649 EUR (incl. VAT) / 750 US$ (excl. Tax) if 100 units are reached (20% less if 500 units). Contact: mailto:sales@handheld-linux.com

The PDA module has no case. So we should find someone who can design and manufacture a robust polymer/metal case. Alternatively, we could produce files allowing users to make their own. Schematics for the dimensions of the Compulab circuitry are provided here along with various other development friendly files.
