PaperChase - Wow!! Talk about a guy who just doesn't get it!!! Do you understand at all what "legacy free" means? Driver signing? Reliability enhancements? The iPaq will take any multibay peripheral (that means any of the slide-in hot-pluggable laptop peripherals) including the LS-120, which by the way will read and write standard floppy disks. So if you REALLY want to use floppy disks, you can do so. The $6 floppy you are describing has the unfortunate side effect of requiring the legacy ISA interrupt and port structure that this product is specifically avoiding. Get with the program!
