Palm i705s can be had for about $100 if you know where to look if you
really need wireless. And the m515 (and many other models) support SD
and MMC cards - you pick up one large enough to backup the whole palm
for just a little bit of money. And you have to be realistic - most
people don't loose data on their Palm OS PDA regularly. An average user
*might* have it happen once a year.
