compatibility (Score 1)

hmmm...i really dislike the compatibility issues with all these different devices. i really am not in the mood to go and buy all kinds of proprietary garbage for an already expensive device. i personally think the standard Palm PIM functions are good enough. what would be cool though is a regular PCMCIA slot that would support the wireless ethernet cards that many universities support (like CMU). i think wireless is the key to handheld devices. the Palm VIIx is too large and expensive. also the service plans need to go down. this will come with time i suppose. other than that, the new palms look pretty cool...but like most people say, not that great an improvement over the Palm V series. i will probably upgrade but most people should be perfectly fine with the Vx, which has gone down in price.
