So you thought the Newton was too large to carry around? Look at what
Seiko's done to the wonderfully tiny Palms, Clies, HandEras, and Visors.

It only costs $200 US to make your PDA much larger and heavier than a Newton
and it STILL lack HWR! Now you can tap-type on a piece of paper. Can you
imagine the looks you'd get taking notes with this in a meeting?

Reminds me of a Newton sitting in the Leather Developer's Portfolio, just
less functional.

I can't wait until I run into a Palm user carrying one of these trying to
extol the virtues of it's diminutive size and it's ease of data entry onto
the screen! This is going to be fun!
