I wanna start doing reviews on an external device but there are so many things where I can run Anki on and I dont know which one to pick. I'd like to get an iPhone but my experience with iPods makes me wanna not get one.

Is there anyone who's using something other than their desktop/laptop to do additional reviews on and syncing it with the Anki file on your computer?

Recommendations anyone?

Theres a list of platforms available here

I've tried using the windows mobile version but could never get it to work unfortunatley sad

iAnki is supposed to be good, but I don't know if it's worth buying an iPhone just for that...

Also,
Is it possible to compile Anki on ARM architecture cpu? If so using anki on one of these would be awesome!!

looks like it's based on Linux, so if you can get all the python packages installed running Anki on it could very well be possible.

Is there anyone here that has actually got this to work? I'd love Anki on my PDA.

ubuntu runs on it, so anki wouldn't be a problem.  don't hold your breath waiting for the hardware though...
