Er, not sure what else to write up, since I have not used Palms in so long. __________________ --- Patrick Scott ICQ 12320 (PDA) --- Palm Pro, Casiopeia A-11, Casio A-20, HP 620LX, Sharp Mobilon HC-4500, HP 620LX, Palm IIIx, Vadem Clio C-1050, Casio E-10, Casio E-105, Casio E-115, Casio EM-500, Casio E-125, Sharp Zaurus SL-5500, Toshiba e740

Nice, but for $500, stereo sound would have been nice, ya know? __________________ --- Patrick Scott ICQ 12320 (PDA) --- Palm Pro, Casiopeia A-11, Casio A-20, HP 620LX, Sharp Mobilon HC-4500, HP 620LX, Palm IIIx, Vadem Clio C-1050, Casio E-10, Casio E-105, Casio E-115, Casio EM-500, Casio E-125, Sharp Zaurus SL-5500, Toshiba e740

Link is here: http://www.palm.com/products/handhelds/tungsten-c/ I still can't believe there is a Palm with a 400mhz cpu now. 2 years ago we were still at 16mhz right? As I'm browsing through they are still uploading the images. __________________ Ocell.Blog: Organisms Meet Machinery Ocell.Photo

In addition, palm has (finally) beefed up the RAM to 64MB and features a built-in WiFi. Palm devices are definately going to catch up to current PPC devices.

One thing about Pocket PC that I prefer over Palm - the ability to have both HOME and WORK addresses in the same single contact on the PDA. Sometimes I need both, and it seems silly to have to store two different contacts. Focus of programs is also a bit sloppy. Should be able to multitask better. That said, I will say that WorldMate on the Tungsten C is faster than it is on my Toshiba e740. That is one very nice app. __________________ --- Patrick Scott ICQ 12320 (PDA) --- Palm Pro, Casiopeia A-11, Casio A-20, HP 620LX, Sharp Mobilon HC-4500, HP 620LX, Palm IIIx, Vadem Clio C-1050, Casio E-10, Casio E-105, Casio E-115, Casio EM-500, Casio E-125, Sharp Zaurus SL-5500, Toshiba e740

I've been griping about the PXA250 and it's mediocre performance for almost 5 months now, so It's good to see all PDAs adopting the new PXA255. The only thing left for PALM is the OS, so when version 6 is released PALM's will be the best PDAs overall on the market IMHO. <]=)

SuperNames can do this, I can add as many addresses to one contact as I want.

One of the main reasons I carry my Clie' around more then my PPC.

Oh, nice. Must have some willpower, and resolve still to take the Tungsten C back.
