The name of the PalmPilot:

Sheba gave a pretty good summary of strong Pilot sales (although she(?) didn't mention Europe, where it's also doing well), but then said "Incidentally, 3Com got sued by Pilot, the pen company. 3Com will have to change the name. Perhaps a new name with a new version?"

Um, PalmPilot is the new name. My older model Pilot is called a Pilot... that's what the pen company sued over. I believe the IBM-OEM version will be the WorkPad, if I remember correctly. I love my Pilot, and I keep seeing more of them everywhere!
