Hi Jim, It is impressive, I agree. The PalmPilot II is selling for under $300 these days and the new Palm Pilot III is around $400 in most places. The programs are fairly inexpensive as computer software goes, and most are still so experimental that they are free! (Experimental, but nonetheless functional and useful.) I've gotten many cool things as shareware for almost free. I think the most I paid for a program was around $79 and that was for a database compatible with MS Access. Oddly enough, the grass always seems greener........I am considering buying my first laptop at the same time that you are mentioning the possibility of swapping your MAC for something that appears more convenient. I think they all have their place and a good deal depends on your style of operating. Which, in the end, can be said about most aspects of our work.
