Well of course you can do anything you want to make yourself feel good
about whatever you do. But what I meant was that you are comparring the
top of the line of one brand with the bottom of the line on another
brand.
There are PocketPCs or WinCEs that sell for less than $500. So you are
picking a really high price to make the low end Palm look like a better
deal. But when you compare apples to apples, it is not as easy to
justify.
Why don't you compare a $400 IIIc with a $400 WinCE?
Or why don't you compare a $500 Palm with a $300 WinCE?
Because you are grasping for anything to make the palm look good.
