Rudedog - Any thoughts on whether the new 'super light/thin' WIN98 notebooks are enough of a volume market for CPQ to enter? I have checked out both the Sony PG-505 and Sharp Actius, and am impressed by both very much. Each machine weighs under 3 pounds and is less than an inch thick, they make laptops displayed next to them look like huge bricks. These would seem to me to be ideal communication and internet devices for someone who wants to travel very light. They are not much larger than the LG Phenom class of HPC's but much more functional. Marvels of miniaturization, guess thats why I only see models from Japanese manufacturers so far. John
