Too right! By the way, I've just been there (don't you just love
those in-message links!) and haven't seen much of "Pocket Office",
just this "Tough Pad" or whatever: vestigial keypad (rubberised keys)
and I don't know how it's ported but it looks disgusting and
possibly will not connect with a base-machine without USB or whatever!
As for "integration", all I need is RTF uploads from the Newt (Works)
and ClarisWorks on the mac to read it but there again there's
always "notepad" for sourcecode though it would be really cool to know
enough about the file composition of the various utilities so I can share
data around *irrespective* of what system the other person is using? Now
trhat would be really cool! <|:-)
