I just don't see how anyone could even compare CE with the PalmOS. We have to remember the "raison de etre" for having a Palm or PDA. Quick reference, Reliability, Remote Access, Ease of use and Portability. In every category COMS is a mile ahead of the competition. MSFT and its cohorts are losing the battle contrary to what the press is disseminating. Yes, they are spending billions to tout their CE but anyone with a little due diligence can see that it is nothing but hype. Go to any electronic store in world and pretend you are a prospective buyer of a PDA and you will see that 95% of the time you will be pushed into buying a Palm Pilot; and this is done with merit. Palm's OCR is just incredible compared to that of the competition. This Xmas I have made my mind up to buy the Palm V for at least a dozen friends. I just can't imagine anything more useful and elegant. BTW - Is there a way to buy the Palms for less if you buy them by the dozen?
