Windows mobile will never match a PC OS. Even win 98.

Added: Only win 95 runs properly. No surprise on that. Win95 can run on PSP which have 333mhz cpu 32mb memory and 4mb ram. win98 and XP is said to be very very slow. No doubt about that. I think xp requires minimum of 256mb of ram if I'm not mistaken. But at the end of the thread, Somebody copied the xp especifically designed foe eee pc. He will update later. I doubt if he can make it work properly. I think the diamond/touch pro will be the best for this project. Diamond in particular coz it has a built in storage.
I once had windows 95 installed and booting from a 4 GB Keychain drive. It doesn't take much.
