Agreed - a Palm-size Newton would be the ideal.
Regarding pants pockets...front or back? I'd be afraid to slip it in the
back pocket, for fear of crushing the thing...and if I put it in the front,
well, I think my wife would ask me, "Is that an iPAQ in your pocket, or are
you just glad to see me?"
Sorry, couldn't resist. :)

Palm there too, and neither work for me. Extra 2 oz. or not, I'm too likely
to bend over and dump the device on the floor. My iPAQ rides in my pants
pocket, and it is very comfortable there. Plus I don't always have a shirt
pocket, but nearly always a pocket elsewhere. So I guess I'm saying there's
a difference between shirt and pant pocket.
