For those who appreciate and really need Newton's functionality, size was
never an issue, if not an asset.
In case you have not noticed, most Palms do not even have any sort of PC
card support and I doubt if the one you have even got it. I am glad to see
the Palm gain functionality. I will switch once it had gained enough to
resemble what the Newton is since years. For the time being I would only buy
it as a satellite hand held to the Newton, and that is only because of its
size and basic functionality.
