<<Tell me about it. My shoulders are worn out from years of carrying a laptop on the road. I'm putting together a collection of lightweight gadgets based around the Palm Pilot IIIx and a QCP860 right now. >>

So, which shoulder dips? My left one is at least an inch lower than my right. I look like I'm tacking to port all the time.

I've probably got the lightest, bestest laptop in my Toshiba Portege, and I still hate lugging it. I currently use an HP Jornada palmtop with WinCE for road trips that are less than two or three days. It's a lot more clunky than a Palm, but I can get email from my home AND work accounts. Plus, I can browse SI and Yahoo more "naturally."

I'm looking forward to your ultimate road-warrior review. Any time I can dump a few lbs. of batteries and power supplies, I'm all over it.
