Quite frankly, by not being wedded to any one technology or operating system, they will have the best of all worlds. I can't imagine using a PDA without robust internet connection. On the other hand, the PDA will never replace the laptop for visits to clients, trading on the beach (LOL - I wish), etc. Actually, the trend seems to be more add-ons for PDA's and smaller laptops so that the difference between these products may diminish, with varying products and styles being tailored to one's profession and/or need. Maybe, one day, consumer wearable computers will be a reality. The real key for MCOM, IMO, is that real 3-G will not happen for years and MCOM has that opportunity to capture a big enough market share to insure a level of revenue and earnings that will put the doubters to bed. For now, what I have on my cellphone is not the type of internet experience I would recommend to anyone.
