Chaz,

I've read some stuff about Handspring too. They're getting a lot of press because of the news about the PalmPilot spin off. It seems that no one can talk about that without bringing up Handspring.

My thinking is that we might be able to watch or participate in a gorilla game of hand-held operating systems. (Does that phrase, operating system, remind you of a company that's done OK? :) Apparently Sun's OS for their Palm has 80% of the market and Windows CE has the other 20%. As you're probably aware, Handspring uses Sun's OS. When PalmPilot gets spun off, I think it's a gorilla game well worth watching.
