This is PRECISELY my point about working ON your computer instead of  
WITH your computer. To drag out the Standard Car Analogy; this is the  
difference between people who spend all their free time in the garage,  
hood up tinkering with their cars and the vast majority who want a box  
that moves them from Point A to Point B reliably and without too much  
work.

Oh, and further info on that Visor and OS X

Or just freakin' pick up a newer palm for cheap. Mine is an M500 I got  
for $25. Still going strong, still useful, syncs like a charm using  
Palm 4.1 software and iSync.
