A co-worker of mine just purchased one the other day, the model with the
hidden keyboard and godlike graphics.  Here is the review he sent me
before he bought it:

...which leads to this (IMO) pathetic, brainwashed by M$ review by Mossberg:

...and then this one recently:

... he said it sync'd up fine with his system at home using win98 SE. He
really wants to get wireless networking for it so he can browse with
the custome built Opera minibrowser. 8D


Personally, I think Mossberg assumed that if it didn't work with XP it wouldn't
work with anything.  8(
