Thanks for posting the article man!

I'm gonna be in the market for a new device within the next couple months, so we'll see what I decide on :) Speaking of which...I've really been interested in Dells new lineup...but from what I hear and have seen, it just seems to be a bit big :(

Dan and I missed the Dell key note speach, but apparently the first 200 media analysts to enter recieved a free Dell PDA worth $299.

Boy were we kicking ourselves in the butt for missing out.

I have a problem with PDA's.
People think of them as Mini comps. And they AINT.
A PDA, with a Pager, and IR is nice, Digital camera, mp3 player, would be kinda neet. But they are for DATA. Phone#, Email, Names, schedules, addresses, and such data is great. Sharp has one with 1 MEG of ram and it $50.
Why buy something, that IF you loose it, will be a PAIN. $20-50 is fine by me, but $300 aint.
