That's why I posted it. The customer likes the Joranda 568's better then the iPaq. The replaceable battery does sound like a better feature. No problem, they are both HPQ products.

Reading between the lines, it also appears the Joranda product manager might be rocking the merger boat. Selling the Joranda is a good thing. Knocking HPQ's iPaq in public in another. Maybe he has alternate career plans. Maybe he has been told to make alternate career plans, and this is his farewell speech. Who really knows? I just found it entertaining.

BARRON'S PREVIEW

Despite the drop in the major market averages over the past 2 years, finding
cheap stocks isn't easy. Reason: As the high-flyers pull back to more
reasonable levels, many previously-overlooked stocks are enjoying
spectacular runs. Portfolio managers suggest buying out-of-favor companies
with solid histories of profit growth, such as Citigroup, Freddie Mac,
Washington Mutual, Merck, homebuilders Pulte and Centex, Verizon
Communications and Hewlett-Packard, Barron's reports.
