So you are correct they may not be drool worthy, but they are very nice.

Do you mean drooling over the new Dell handhelds? They're awesome. They make some nice computers as well (I'm typing on a two-year old Dell right now). I don't know if I'd go drooling over any of them, except maybe their gaming rigs. Just for you Zane, I put a link to the word "dongle" in my comment above.

Heh heh. I've been drooling over the new Dell's. Of course I'm not looking at getting a mac anytime soon (of an Axim for that matter), but Thanks for the info. Dongle… Heh heh.

Great screen, integrated bluetooth and an SD slot. For contacts and iCal syncing, it works great with just iSync in Tiger. She has a little Bluetooth USB <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dongle">dongle</a> for that which works nicely, too. However, iSync really seems to be for phones and PDA's which don't do use any other special programs. She has a program called <a href="http://www.markspace.com/missingsync_palmos.php" rel="nofollow">The Missing Sync</a>, which does allow for transferring programs to the Palm (or Pocket PC). She uses a relatively large handheld database program which won't transfer as of yet, but we think we may have stumbled across the problem though: a required Palm OS update for large files. Angela used one of those old Handspring Visor's as well, with a CF card adapter which drained the battery in about 30 minutes. It was virtually worthless. She then moved two a Pocket PC and she has owned a iPaq and a Dell Axim. They were both nice, but underpowered. The new Dell's are really incredible for the price. This newest Palm is great, but is still just a PDA with a really nice screen. For most folks who are looking for a all-around device, I still think the Treo's are cool. Plus, it's named after you.

I've got a very old Handspring Visor (the first one they came out with) w/2mb that I'm thinking of starting to use again if it'll sync with Address Book and iCal.
