Palm Computing...NOT O.T.!!!

Investors embraced the forecasts for the growth of the emerging technology. For example, research firm IDC predicted the market for hand-held devices like the Palm Pilot will grow at a compound annual clip of 77 percent, with 21.5 million devices in consumers' hands by 2003.

Palm should expect more friction from Microsoft when it introduces its newest CE device. "Microsoft is expected to release shortly a new pocket PC," said Michael Miller editor in chief of PC Magazine, who has tested every Palm device. "Windows CE does more things and runs on a wider variety of platforms."

"There's the whole line of CE devices, and the fact that they have color screens makes them more of a competitor," Desautels of the Wireless Data Forum said. "CE is fighting an uphill battle but it could be a significant competitor."
