>Sorry for the lame topic, but I need selling on keeping my Newton and to quit looking at Palm Vx on Ebay. But is it time?
If your job needs it, get it. I'm getting one ONLY for PDR access(unless Wince has it).
You can take my Newt. ONLY FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS!

>In addition, I HATE the Palm OS. Why can't you just write where ever you want. I HATE grafitti (sp?). I HATE, HATE, HATE that you can't just drag a date entry where ever you want. I think the bottom line is that I hate Palm.
Same here, but there is some new software that makes the 'Palm' more Newton-like. Check either http://www.pdabuzz.com, http://www.smaller.com, and/or http://www.pencomputing.com.

>BUT, I need to sync with my laptop. It's necessary now. Before, it has been tolerable, but I really need to be able to sync name, dates, and notes, without complications. I have NEVER been able to get Act to sync with my Act Database at the office. In fact, I have never been able to get Act to work period, despite HOURS and HOURS of effort. Act on my Newt is just not an option to my great disappointment.
Hmmm, I gotta try ACT!, just for fun. ;-)

>Which is why I have been so desparetly trying to get my serial connection back working, to see if I can't eek out the sync issue once and for all. But the fact is, I am loosing time and money. I am certain I would learn to dela with the stupid OS of the Palm.
Take out the implant, get it back to stock.

>Is there any justification to have all three? Smallest laptop, best PDA, and a pocket phonebook that just happens to run vital
>company software!?!?!
Yes! I now have 'Best PDA'=Newton. I now have smallest laptop=505FX. I will have a Palm with Palm-only software...and yes, I do have a Motorola T900 pager with keyboard for wireless email.

>Thanks for any feedback!
