I've used it, I'm programming for it in my free time. I don't like it,
and I don't think it's a match for a Newt. The interface is bad, the
usability is bad, the battery life is horribly short, lots of bugs,
etc. Nice size and finish though :-) This device sucks big time. Of
course, this is IMHO. If you _really_ want to sell your soul to MS,
choose a Jornada or a Toshiba Pocket PC device. Otherwise I would
suggest Psion 5mx which is a wonderful machine (pity they don't make
them any more), Psion Series 7 (amazing color sub-subnotebook), or Sony
Ericsson P800 (the ultimate PDA/smartphone). I'm biased, of course, as
I work at Symbian :-)
