New Pocket PC 2003 PDAs and Upgrade Kits from Toshiba

Toshiba have realeased three new models in the Genio e550 series. The GENIO e550CT, e550DT, and e550GT. These are respectively newer versions of the e550C (camera model), e550D (dictionary model) and e550G/GX ('high-end base model'). All come with the latest low power PXA255 processor and 128MB RAM and of course Pocket PC 2003. The e550CT also has 16MB of NAND ROM 15 MB of which s accessible to the user. Other than that nothing new so for existing Genio owners the 7,000 yen upgrade kits are a more reasonable option. These have only been announced for the e550C and e550D so far.
