HP Jornada 548: About same size as Palm, larger color display, faster,
more RAM, small, eay to use and has a ton of free apps. This is NOT the

No, according to HP and Microsoft, it's FREE (minus 7.95 shipping) for
the CD which includes the SDK, Toolkit, Visual Basic and Visual

giving away their Windows32 Dev Environment. They already have that OS
sewed up.
