Preference thing. I'd rather have an AM than an FM radio. <GRIN>

When I looked at me other new features recommended I don't see any dramatic 
size increase or in increasing costs.  Also something to consider is FM radio 
on a chip.  This FM radio chip cost $10 and as the manufacturer says who can't 
afford to put an FM radio in every device for that cost.  Adding functionality 
like a PDA calendar would most likely be a software issue.  Let's really think 
outside the box because when they do upgrade the hardware there are lots of 
possibilities that might really work out well.

Seriously, we are planning a hardware upgrade before the parts become
unavailable. I do not have any information yet on time lines or upgrade
paths, but you good folks on this list will be the first to know.

I may get beheaded again, but I'd like to know just how old the guts of

the BP are, and how likely it is that the components that make up said

guts are still going to be available cheaply in the future.
