I'm going to throw this idea out, as I know I'll never get around to it
myself (and I
haven't given up on my MessagePad yet): I've often thought about the idea of
putting together a web resource to help ex-MessagePad users find ways to
employ
similar functions and programs on the Palm platform.

I think there are all sorts of features we tend to take for granted
(GestureScript,
for example) that don't really have Palm equivalents. Are there ways to
duplicate,
or approximate them?

It wouldn't be devised to encourage the transition, just make it easier
for those
who have less of a choice in the matter.
