I was going to suggest the same. Just be aware of the possible risks
of basing a product on another one that can be withdrawn from the
market at any time.
At a previous employer, Palm Pilots were used for user interface to an
industrial controller, mounted in a custom frame on the front of the
machine. The design had to be changed again and again, as different
Pilot models came into and out of being.
And "Ah, honey, they also dropped the serial port this time."

Hello all,
The company I work for is planning a handheld device with a touch display
(320x200 pixel), WLAN and UPnP functionality to control other devices in a
wireless Wifi network. Now my electronic work experience in the embedded
domain seems to be a little outdated so I would kindly like to ask if
somebody has tip what architecture is common and up to date now.
Also a hint about displays and evaluations kits is highly appreciated
Best Regards
