Journal krow's Journal: Zaurus 4
The Zaurus is damn cool for those who are interested. The wireless works wonderfully and its apt-get like system for finding new applications is a killer idea. This was always one of my biggest complaints with my Palm. It does IMAP directly so I don't give a shit about it syncing with my copy of evolution. The handwriting recognition is actually pretty nice and even though I find myself using the keyboard quite a bit, the other does work quite well.
I have owned Wizards, Newtons (three different kinds), and a palm pilot.
The Wizard was limiting (it worked), the Newton was great but just too damn heavy (and its hand writing recognition was only so-so), and the palm pilot worked but was very limiting.
Thus far, this is the best of them all

I dunno. Part of me really likes the idea of not having to lug around my Inspiron7500 everywhere but part of me says tough it out until these devices have several hundred megs of memory, a rockin cpu and are built in to a cellphone. I hear they are on the way from friends in Japan but we are so far behind them in the gadget race that some of those advances may just be discountinued before the telcom industry here finishes its milking of the pcs system and upgrades to real world cellular phones like the Japanese and Euro toys.

This will last me the next three years, I hope.
