The Palm OS is not evil. It is a good basic system for a Pen based PDA.
However, it is limited in many ways which I think gives it its evil
reputation.
Plus it does not have true handwriting recognition/input.

Other than it being from MSFT, no! :-)
Seriously, the Pocket PC OS has improved dramatically over the years.
The latest version is much better than before.
But like the Palm OS, it is lacking.
I must admit, when given the choice of Palm OS or Pocket PC, I prefer
Palm OS devices for most things except for browsing and e-mail. The
Pocket PC works much better in both these areas IMHO.
