    Note that fryke's thread on MacOSX.com is nine months old (it dates from February 2002). Of course, hope springs eternal, so nine months mean nothing. Anyway, it's good to see a fellow Swissman in the Mac rumormonging business.

    Hats off to the rumor spreading Swiss!



    Ms. Belle, you may want to hold off on the purchase, see:

    ...right over in Future Hardware. I'll bet Fran's breathing heavily right now.





    I installed Palm Desktop 4.0 on my Windows contraption at work today. Nice interface. I linked it to Outlook (instead of Palm Desktop). Email from my Windows contraption (which I cannot yet do from my ibook.) Not bad, not bad at all. Still...



    Holding my Windows infected Palm m515 is like handling a container of some awful virus....

    Belle, here is some info on the <a href="http://www.bargainpda.com/default.asp?newsID=993&showComments=true"; target="_blank">Samsung Nexio</a>. This is the NEXIO S150 I believe. The S160 has a flip cover keyboard.

    Wow, that looks like a nice display! No US release date, but probably some time next year.



    I suspect 2003 may be quite interesting when it comes to palmtops.

    Very nearly useable, now it just needs a 90% key pitch keyboard.

    As long as the handwriting recognition is useable, no keyboard needed for me. I'm sure samsung will have an accessory keyboard for it soon.
