Why do I keep using a Palm. Its nice and simple. Having a PalmOS device has pretty much taught me that efficiency doesnt equal complexity. And throughout all of the models that I have owned, each has done the job, but very instinctly. I think that WinMob will get there, and to some point is. But the general interface and the idea of mounting power to equal ability doesnt always equate to being a "perfect for me" kind of device.

Now, having said that. I now have added a Treo 600 to my collection. I think that besides my m515 adn T5, there has been no device that has stretched my ability to be mobile, and was not an intrusion at the same time. Thats ability to be ubiqitous is my idea of tech that works. And for me the PalmOS does it best.
