The problem with this is that it makes trouble (or dosen't fix the trouble) for
the people who own HP handehelds other then the 28 and 48.  Why should someone
with a Jaguar (when they come out) or a hp12 (for example) have to go through
the trouble of reading all the 48 posts.  If we are going to split, we should
split based on the problem we are trying to solve.  The problem is, too many
hp48 posts, not too many hp handheld posts.

Note:  I actualy only really care about the 48 posts, so I am using the term
"problem: very losely.
