Subject: Re: libretto sucessor?

Not a Libretto successor, just another boring Windows CE palmtop.

1GB microdrives in a palmtop have already been done on the Palms.

The Sharp Zaurus (Japanese version) provides far more features and
functionality if you're to buy a japanese pda.  In the USA, simply buy a Palm
OS palmtop - they've taken up 80% of the market share, have more programs and
support and accessories than any other platform, and can simply be considered
the 'standard'.  Too many dead WinCE palmtops from the past not used anymore to
bother with any WinCE device.

Beyond that?

Diamond Mako, clearning out at outpost.com and tigerdirect.com for $99.  16MB,
keyboard, grayscale LCD, word processing, spreadsheet, optional modem and Opera
Internet web browser.  One of the few devices smaller than a Libretto with very
good web browser compatiblity with the majority of sites out there today, but
even I'd just go Palm or Libretto instead (L50 goes for $200-300 on ebay, so
why bother with a grayscale screen?).

Xircom Rex.  My REX Pro 3 runs happily.  PCMCIA Type II card form factor, and
you can download all of your appointments and addressses into this device. 
Much handier than a Palm for me since it has limited functionality on just the
basics. (the Palm?  Nothing but playing PocketChess all day ;)
