Leapfrog Enterprises is coming out with a new handheld gaming/learning platform called Didj. What is interesting to me is the detailed specifications they have published for the handheld. These are usually kept secret, but I think they are betting no one will come close this year for $89.99 list price.
- ARM9 at 393MHz with 32MB 131MHz DDR RAM and 256MB NAND Flash
- USB 2.0 PC connection
- 320x240 16.7 million color TFT display
- OpenGL ES 1.1 graphics API for embedded systems
- Ogg vorbis audio codec (open source royalty-free alternative to mp3)
- Theora video codec (same idea as Ogg Vorbis)
- 16 Channel MIDI software synth
- Multi-layer graphics controller
- Proprietary Leapfrog OS called Brio
