Cool Wanting a big screen PDA to go with my Treo 650

I'm a Palm enthusiast, and prefer the Palm OS. So, it makes sense to me to have my cell phone running Palm OS. Hence my Treo 650. Also, I love the built-in keyboard. But as an enthusiast, I have a hard time limiting my palm experience to a 2 inch screen. It's perfect for my phone but not so perfect for other uses.

My idea would be to take the Treo with me every where, and bring along a second big screen wi/fi device like a Lifedrive when I have the cargo pocket room for it. The LD would work great for web browsing, ebooks, my favorite blogs and for playing games.

It seems to me that it would be in Palm's best interest to help us out here so that the Palm enthusiasts who own Treo 650's would have a reason to get two Palms instead of just one. First, the two devices need to talk. I want to use my treo keyboard as a portable keyboard on my lifedrive. I want to move data back and forth wirelessly. I would love to synch the two devices selectively by application.

I would split up the software between the two devices but also would need some things on each. I'm hoping not to have to pay twice for that software by the way, but if both have the same user IDs, I'm guessing that synching would get all messed up. -- Janet, tech ronin
