My brother just got one of those. Quite impressive but the screen is
still not big enough (its 320x320). If the keyboard area was screen
instead I might think about Newton replacement. The high end Sony
Clies have a 480x320 which I consider to be the minimum useful screen
after using Newt 2k for so long. The hardware supports 640x480x16, but
the PalmOS is pretty brain dead about different screen sizes and Sony
had to do funky tricks to get bigger than 320x320.
