256 Color
high reflective Thin Film Transistor (TFT) liquid crystal display. TFT technology is
displayed technology found in higher-end portable computers because of the crisp, sharp
image it displays. The brilliant color enhances readability and improves the overall
usefulness of the Palm-size PC. Reflective technology allows the user to clearly read the
display in any environment – even in bright sunlight conditions that wash out other
Palm-size PC displays and make them unreadable. The display supports 320 x 240 resolution,
three times that of the 3Com PalmPilot. |
|

Li-Ion batteries to Palm-size PCs, a technology usually found in higher-end portable
computers. When the Compaq Aero 2100 is placed in docking station to synchronize, the
Li-Ion rechargeable batteries are automatically charged. Connecting to the AC Adapter also
recharges the batteries. |
