Bottom Line:
The last time I visited TechXNY, PCExpo then, the show almost filled the entire floor space in the Javits Center. Three years later, and with several conferences pulling the plug, I was surprised to see the show shrink to almost half the size I remembered. With two major conferences pulling out I was hoping for a stronger showing here even if DititalLife was just around the corner.

HP and Pepper
HP
As soon as you entered the show, there was HP to greet you: a massive booth on the right showcasing samples throughout their product lines. Wandering around their booth I noticed a wireless printer on display, quite a novel idea, and about time someone implemented it.

Pepper Hand Held
The Pepper Pad was hidden away in the back,
but it was one of the most interesting devices of the show. Based on an Intel XScale PXA270 (623 MHz) processor and running an embedded
version of Linux 2.4 this overgrown handheld has all of the features of a
winner. BlueTooth, 802.11b+g, QWERTY thumb pad, composite video out, 20 Gig
Hard Drive, 800x600 display with an Intel 2700G 32Mb accelerator powering it
and much more crammed into a 2.3 lbs, 12.1x6.6x0.8 inch package. At an
introductory price of $800, users seeking a more portable notebook may want to
check this out.
