I wonder if it is wise using comp.sys.hp...  Comp.sys.hp is for HP PC  
and HP workstation owners, and if they split their split groups will  
intermix with your proposed.  Other people have stated that users who  
want to read all handhelds messages should read all groups created by  
this split.  If the hp48 posting are carried away from a "handhelds"  
hierarchy then this will not be as convient.  A possible solution  
would be:

  Delete:  comp.sys.handhelds or alias it to comp.sys.handhelds.misc
  Create:  comp.sys.handhelds.misc
  Create:  comp.sys.handhelds.hp48
  Create:  comp.sys.handhelds.hp28
  

  	etc.

I would advocate removal and redirection, using an alias, of the  
current comp.sys.handhelds group.
