Olaf, Have you seen the new Pocket PC. It has new HWR, looks almost
like Rosetta. Same configuration window. Asks how you write your A's
and how not you write A's. Same thing. but it doesn't recognize as fast.
But its getting there.

The Pocket PC supports CF cards. Which has USB cards, Ethernet,
Modem, GPS , Memory Cards and more. There is also color models.
TFT with 64k color palette.

The OS has gotten better then the previous version. But its still
"Microsoft", so we have to see.

I'm not saying I don't like Newton's. Shoot I LOVE mine. But technology
is getting closer to the newton. So just watch out.
