I've come back to the newt after switching to Wince then to palm. I'm
almost happy to be back, the newt being more powerful then palm and much
more friendly than CE, but I'm beginning to worry as I can't find a cable to
connect the newt to my pc laptop. I like palm ok but I like the newt too,
so I'm still straddling the fence a bit.
