it is okay to use, but is randomly responsive
basicly think WinCE jordania or Ipaq with a keyboard.

eats batteries like popcorn, but if you have the cash it is a great toy
sharp has had a long history of great PDAs that never take off, so maby this

in the spring that can do all this, plus run your old palm software...

just  my 2c
