I've considered this option several times myself.  The digitizer went bad on
my last Palm Tungsten T2 (my brother's did the same thing twice on his E).
With all the compatibility issues, I'm almost ready to make the switch.

After looking at the latest PC based PDA's, I have to admit their layout is
really sweet.  I hate to go back to Microsoft for anything, but if there
product is more compatible & more reliable for my given situation, I might
just do it.

One of the big reasons I switched over to Microsoft Entourage last year was
to get the category support on my Palm (it is really that essential).  With
the latest Tiger OS release, I am compelled to move back to the Apple apps.
The tight integration is really awesome, and I end up using them for a lot
of things anyway.

Well, I'm getting in to rambling now.  Have a happy July 4th everyone.

Cheers,
