It was called the "Handy 98". Does anyone have anymore information on this product? Although I am happy with my T1000SE, I am looking for a PC clone similar to the Poquet PC that I can use to write trip reports on. Size is paramount, since I travel with only carryon luggage on trips (One time I lost my luggage for 6 days). My portable office would consist of my Sharp organizer and a sub-notebook pc. If this product is coming to North America, it means that the laptop market will be expanding in the handheld category. rob... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- | Robert Marmen marmen@bnr.ca OR | | Bell Northern Research marmen%bnr.ca@cunyvm.cuny.edu | | (613) 763-8244 My opinions are my own, not BNRs |
