Wow, what a Xmas gift! My PDA does MP3, Voice recorder that records
hours-long office meetings, North America GPS with Voice commands, and
MS IE and Outlook. That's a MP3 player, voice recorder, GPS unit,
and Web all in one. Can you guess which PDA I have? Amazing.

You missed out the three most important things a PDA can have; a brilliant
Name & Address book, a fabulous diary, and never, ever crash. (The second
time I open my PDA and find that it has died is the time it goes in the
trash. The only machine that has ever passed this test is my Psion 5MX,
which has crashed less in nearly ten years of ownership than my Winblows
Mobrule iPaq did each and every day of the short and painful tenure of my
ownership of this expensive, heavy, useless piece of shit.)

The rest of it is just pointless fluff.

Ahh, yes. I remember those. I really liked them. The hardware and the
software. I didn't like the dim screen, but the rest was great. I wish they
hadn't dropped out of the market.

Hugo, still trying to flame and troll about everyone who doesn't share exactly
his preferences. How pathetic.

: The rest of it is just pointless fluff.

Like all of your posting on Usenet, Hugo?

Personally I think the Series 5 was just fluff, and the Series 3 being the real
working Psion (much more stable and less buggy software).
