...Which on the face of it is unlikely, as Apple would be highly unlikely to grant the licence/hardware docs for an alien commercial OS when they have their own.

its more likely to be something that uses UBoot, or something by IBM.
IBM do have a PDA reference platform for their mobile PPC core.

I don't think it would ever be a Mac. Why would you piggy back on a Mac system. That would mean you would never be able to pass up the number of Macs sold. Software companies won't write for an OS that exists on another OS's box. Like the C=128. Few titles ever came out for that because it had C=64 compatability. Software companies just wrote for the C=64 as they knew that anyone with a C=128 or a C=64 could use it.

I'm kind of thinking it's either a Toaster or a Can opener. ...

Anyway, it shows how much Gary knows us... He got his thread started so here we go...

Not going to happen. If you heard some of the talks of the Friedens here about this it's not hard to guess that it will not be a Mac.
