Say goodbye to the hand-held PC The smallest may just be too small April 23 - "Bigger is better" is not an axiom that usually applies to the mobile electronics market. But hand-helds, such as Hewlett-Packard Co.'s LX line, may be in danger of being phased out in favor of bigger machines. "THOSE [HAND-HELD PCS] ARE eventually going to be squeezed out of the market," said Mike McGuire, director of mobile product at market researcher Dataquest. The problems with hand-helds are plentiful: The keyboards are too small to use, screen resolution is low, and there are few other features. Instead, explained McGuire, users will either use a palm-sized PC, such as 3Com Corp.'s Palm III, or a companion notebook that sports the Windows CE operating system - or both. msnbc.com You ain't seen nut'n yet. Count the posters today. I plan to be traveling to the northcountry early Wednesday morning. I suspect that when I get there I will have only a post or two to read. Sure is quiet around here...... o~~~ O
