And another something which at least for me is news. Not a huge plus, but certainly not bad either... A friend of mine works as a salesman for a small company here in the Denver area. They sell casters, wheels, etc. The entire salesforce just got PalmPilot Professionals. Apparently they can keep their contact information as well as their entire inventory in the Pilot, and this makes them ideally prepared to interact with their customers. For a company with 15 employees in this location (and not many more in the other location), this strikes me as a very progressive strategy. And I also think it's cool that the corporate world is picking up Palm Pilots for their employees. Probably not a huge plus to COMS earnings, but far from a negative. What kind of margins do you think they see on those devices? Randy
