Yep! I had a look and, from some distance, it looks really pretty with that
color screen. But, on every page, there was a caption saying that the
screens were simulated. And there were some screens were you could see that
ugly interface from PalmOS, which reminded me that, no matter how pretty and
powerful the hardware is, it will never be better than the software running
on it...
