Psion 5 vs Psion Series 5[edit]

I've always heard this handheld referred to as the Psion Series 5, not the Psion 5. Psion Series 5 redirects to this article, but I think this should be swapped, so that the real article title is Psion Series 5 and the redirect goes the other way. Any objections?

Psion Series 5 is also the official name. As there haven't been any objections in the months since your comment, I've moved the page (and fixed some double redirects). --Safalra 15:39, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

5MX processor?[edit]

I think the 5MX did not use the CL-PS7110. That SoC is cannot run at 36MHz according to available datasheets, and the memory map also seems off. Does anyone know anything about this? 2601:400:C000:E0A1:A927:3490:531B:EB6 (talk) 05:26, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I just found an old thread on the Psion 5MX where it is explained that the SoC is NOT the CL-PS7110: https://sourceforge.net/p/linux-7110/mailman/message/4765270/ There is a lot more info in the full thread. 2601:400:C000:E0A1:A927:3490:531B:EB6 (talk) 05:46, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

On the same mailing list there is a mention of the "Winderemere" CPU which the Psion team developed because the 7110 development was held up. https://sourceforge.net/p/linux-7110/mailman/message/36728173/ 00:29, 20 March 2022 (CEST) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.49.68.3 (talk)

The 5MX is powered by a Windermere (not "Winderemere") SOC, designed by Psion itself.
