OT: I refuse to capitulate! David, I think I am the only non-believer left in the PDA community -- other than those on the MSFT payroll. Or maybe I've been reading too much Marty Whitman material! :) A tear rolled down my cheek reading your Bobby Zimmerman lyrics... advalorem@whereismyapplelisa.com

<A pox on Palm's OS, kernel and shell> David, LOL ! But I have to actually look up on the dictionary to see what that sentence means ! It means some kind of cursing. I do agree with you that Bill G must be extremely frustrated on the PDA OS front. I think consumers in general don't really care about what's in the OS. Palm wins by its appealing physical stylings. When you look at a line-up of different Palms and Handsprings, you can just feel the vitality and the elegancy - and I always have to say "Beautiful !".. Whereas the HP and iPaq designs are just too formal and stifling eventhough they tried very hard to copy Palm. Personally I find the m100/m105 series particularly pleasing aesthetically - conveying a sense of feminism and youthfulness - and those are the intended market. Unfortunately I think the Sony Clie really looks quite horrible. I think a 16-bit color Palm 5 will put the final nail on the WinCe coffin. Mang
