Heh.  I always thought those things were dorky.  I used to be on this
no-backpack phase, and I'd wear a fishing vest with 22 pockets around all
the time, including a perfect Newton pocket.  :)

My iPAQ is small, but it's not as useful as the Newton for what I want a
PDA to do.  For some of the things, I could make it as useful by buying
more (blech) or by writing more for Dynapad, but either way it's down the
road.  And there's no way I can fix the problem of the tiny screen, so
it's usefulness- even with some perfect future Dynapad Release 3.5- is
limited.

Aaron
