Findings show that personal companions were the most frequently used devices among respondents. 3Com's PalmPilot showed a powerful presence, with 70.4 percent of respondents using the device and another 54.8 percent intending to purchase one. guide-p.infoseek.com WF, I did note the Cypress/Benhamou story last week.
