"In another similarity to Palm, the Slim Mate will use a Motorola Dragonball processor, the same used by Palm and
Handspring, Tsai said. A second generation of handhelds that will emerge in 2001 will use a StrongArm processor, he
added. Palm has also said it will move to the StrongArm processor, which is more powerful and allows for more multitasking on the device. Because it licenses Palm's operating system, Handspring will likely follow in its footsteps and also adopt the chip."

RE: "Some major PC companies technically won't even be at the show. Dell, Micron Electronics and Compaq Computer have decided to forgo renting booth space or meeting rooms at the trade show because of the cost, said various sources."
...Booths at major trade shows can cost $1 million or more, according to sources, and they deliver little in terms of marketing value. Comdex, still the world's largest trade show, began to see a decline in major exhibitors two years ago."

Re: NY booth space

The cost of exhibiting in NY can be 2Xs other geographical areas.

RE: Comdex

Comdex is a zoo - completely untargeted.

Networld Interop has gotten a bit large, but it's still one of my personal favorites.
