It's not only the horizontal size it's the vertical. It's really hard
having to scroll through. Usually I have to resort to (ugh!) Pen and Paper.

My math professor was intrigued by it, to say the least--the first prof to
ever notice out of 48 credits worth of courses so far--other than the film
prof who called it my "Palm Pilot"(Insulting). He is a 100% mac user and,
wow, the stuff he creates for our class are INCREDIBLE. His question was
"And it storez it in there somewhere, ze notes?"
I was ready to tell him that it used a technology from the future, an era
where small green pond creatures have taken over the world and developed
the device. I just responded "yes"

I do get questions as to why I don't use a palm pilot. Hemm, and a
magnifying glass?
