Speaking of HP, it might be worth your while to check out the new OmniGo
120. The screen is enhanced to give a backlighting effect, and it's now
supposed to have better communications, PC connectvity and flash RAM
support. If you're good at Graffiti, you should have little trouble with
input. Best of all, it should still only be around $350. Worst of all, it
doesn't look like they will make connectivity software for Mac users.
Bummer.
