The Atom performs well as a Pocket PC, given the trusty Intel XScale processor at 416MHz that the HTC Magician used. Games and video files played just as well as previous devices such as the i-mate JAM and E-TEN M500, so I felt right at home. However, it is your usual XScale processor, so the typical drain of the battery life was expected. However, it has about 200 mAh more than the Magician, so with heavy usage of the radio and surfing/email via EDGE, I could wind down the battery in 10 to 12 hours.
