Highlights of the new release are automatic multi-thread support, support for data structures larger than 2 GB and POSIX threads support. Also available is the first draft of the new PDL book. PDL is especially suitable for scientists. For those not in the know, 'PDL gives standard Perl the ability to compactly store and speedily manipulate the large N-dimensional data arrays which are the bread and butter of scientific computing.' Commercial languages used for the same purpose include MATLAB and IDL."

Thanks for the heads up. I was thinking of buying one of those discounted Windows 7 phones to run my PDL plasma confinement simulations for my tokamak, but it looks like that won't work out. I guess I'll look into an Anroid-based solution instead.
