On Pocket PC, there are some really good looking 3D Action games and some not-so-great looking games. Does it have anything to do with frames per second rate?
This is a question that will need the whole FAQ dedicated to it! The real motion pictures and TV are usually moving at 30 frames per second. On handhelds, there are more issues than just showing 30 fps. First of all, there is the speed of processor and memory bandwidth. For example, the upcoming Xscale processor for Pocket PC will boost processor speed to a maximum of 400 MHz compare to the StrongARM processor which runs at 206 MHz. But it probably won’t matter as much because the 3D rendering depends a lot on the graphic processor and memory bandwidth. Since it seems that the memory bandwidth won’t increase just yet in the new XScale Pocket PCs, the frame rate count will not change dramatically. If the manufacturer incorporates a more sophisticated graphic processor, then frame rate performance will improve. HP in fact, had designed the cancelled 570 Jornada Xscale Pocket PC with a new ATI graphics chip. Likely this chip will make it into coming versions of iPAQs. But the larger data
