Hey, no problem: 1.21 Gigawatts goes through you. Perfectly safe if =
you're wired to a flux capacitor and you're going 88 MPH, and I have =
actual footage to prove it!

Keyboard!  Keyboard!  Keyboard!  It's gotta have a KEYBOARD of some REAL =
kind!  Palms (and their ilk) require the user to have a steady hand and =
be an expert at microscopic accupuncture just to use the so-called =
"keyboard".  A great way to save space, but NOT conducive to FUN =
long-term use!  In my oh-so-humble opinion, of course.  It has nothing =
to do with the fact that I can't afford a Palm.  :-(

DANG, this is fun!  I can't WAIT to see what those guys at HP are =
concocting!  Think they're gonna resurrect the Xpander?
