I've been using a Clie SJ30 -- love the higher resolution screen. My second battery is starting to fail, and I wish I knew a guaranteed source of new batteries, I know the lithium-ions go stale on the shelf within a couple of years, whether used or not.

My dream PDA isn't built and isn't apparently being considered, so here it is:

It's as thin as my Visor Edge, with a comparable metal case and flip cover.

But when I open it (book-wise, not flip-up) it will have TWO screens side by side.

It will be able to
-- run one app in each screen, or
-- two pages of text side by side from a single app, or
-- two images side by side, for stereo viewing

(My proof of concept stereo movies are at www dot ankh dot members dot sonic dot net, each under 1 meg, viewable for now only on a desktop -- if you can "free view" and see depth by placing two pictures side by side, for 'parallel view' -- then you can see stereo movies too, the same way --- or, put a little viewer, just 2 magnifying lenses, over them to make it easier for your eyes to fuse the pair into one)

----> Meanwhile, if anyone knows a good source for a replacement SJ30 battery.....
