UNLEVEL PLAYING FIELDHi Ian,
The Nokia 9500 is out now, and makes more than a respectable palm. It has
more memory (80 MB internal), has wi-fi and Bluetooth, has a camera, and
will soon work with Talks. Unlevel, yes, but folks are working hard on
making it more level.
All the best

Hi all,
Don't let anyone tell you that access technology brings equality. Take a
look, for example, at PDAs. For Christmas I bought my wife a Palm Tungsten
palmtop, and the first thing is, it's exactly that. Small enough to sit
easily on the palm of your hand. The PACmate BX, while strictly speaking
being portable, requires its own bag or, if I put it in my rucky, I wouldn't
be able to get anything else in it. Added to that, the Palm has more
onboard memory, 64 meg, more functionality and, perhaps most important of
all is approximately one twenty-fourth of the price of the PACmate. It's
almost enough to make me wish I could see to use one!
Cheers now.
Ian
