Daniel:

4086 colors on the iPAQ? You're right of course, should be 4096 colors, and I know better. Typo by me? Nope, copied from Compaq's website without thinking:

athome.compaq.com

Handspring, of course, had the brains to correct Compaq's error:

handspring.com

I'll confess I'm not sure why Compaq is using an 8 bit/4096 color screen, when they have the horsepower and OS to drive 16 bit/65,536 colors, unless they opted to use that horsepower to drive the higher 240x320 resolution.

But who cares? From the user point of view, the only thing that matters is how the screen looks under different lighting conditions. For the m505, we'll just have to wait until people get their hands on some. Anybody seen any reviews yet?
