Re: PDA stuff

Oh right, I think they have a really weak or absent FPU. So the tracker thingy 
( dunno the name ) probably worked around that at a low level while Csound 
involves a ton of float math. 

That's too bad about the USB. I wonder why they wouldn't put one on? I'm sure 
that'll happen soon enough though, ditto for the fpu. Afterall, who wouldn't 
want to be able to play great games on the airplane? = )
