I'm not. I've owned several Palms over the last year, usually upgrading to the latest and greatest whenever it came out. But when I bought my Compaq IPAQ, I was just completely blown away. Comparing a Palm to an IPAQ is like comparing an Atari 2600 to a Playstation 2.

The only trouble is finding an IPAQ in stock anywhere. Even at $500, they fly off the shelves in minutes.

The new IPAQ models with built in wireless slots will be the final nail in the coffin. Besides, all the original brains behind the Palm left long ago to start handspring. Palm has no innovative spirit or brainpower left.

Disclaimer- I hate microsoft, but the IPAQ rocks.

-----------------------------------
I'm bullish on MSFT, but even I'm amazed by how quickly things have deteriorated for PALM and improved for MSFT in the Pocket PC market.
