It's lovely to see Palm and Handspring releasing new models in the coming months. Surely hope HP to join in with some kind of announcements. The more the better! PDA will be probably the most diversified segment in computing, with possible over 100 models that suits almost everyone's functional, emotional, spiritual, physical, and locational needs. Go Palm Economy! Khan

PalmOS private entries not so private after all Monday, March 05, 2001 - 11:47 AM EST news.cnet.com "The folks at @Stake have uncovered a private record vulnerability in the PalmOS that allows anyone with physical access to your Palm and the PalmOS developer tools to look at any private records they wish. The security flaw is commonly used by Palm software engineers to debug applications and some consider it more a feature, than a bug or security hole. @Stake released the warning because most casual PalmOS users do not know that their password protected data is not all that protected at all. This exploit goes along with @Stake's Palm IR password stealing exploit released in January. So my advice is, if you're hidding the names/numbers of old girlfriends/boyfriends from your wife or husband, make sure they don't have the PalmOS development tools handy."
