A word about the Novatel Minstrel, though... even though the new III does support all of the III form factors, it does NOT support the IIIc. This is a real bummer for a client of mine who is looking at a wireless web application for sales people.. one that requires color.. I'm going to have to tell them to go with CE..
Does anyone else with a IIIc feel like it has become some sort of forgotten stepchild or black sheep of the Palm family? I know that Palm just lowered the price, but the developer community seems like they are still turning up their noses at it.. as if a color machine couldn't POSSIBLY have a practical application. ---------- Bradly J.
