hi list, tom makes some good points. personally, i'd rather see the bp focus on notes/book reading. it would be nice to pack a gps, radio, phone, notetaker, book reader, mp3 player all into one device, but more features there are, the bigger the firmware gets, the less responsive book port gets. i'm happy with notetaking, mp3 and hopefully ogg sometime, alarms when they come out and book reading. brandon
