I still see a good number of Treos out there. I see random folks in public
with them - people too poor to switch to *ph*n*s maybe - both geeky types
and those I would think less geeky (an artist-type at work). In my family,
my mom has one, but my brother just switched from his Treo to a crackberry.
(I recently switched from a Treo 650 to a 680) I've got a T|X for backup.

My faithful Newtie isn't being used until I can devote some time to puzzling
out sync *again*. )^;
