Re: Further development on Windows?

DL,

I'm not sure what you mean by "VAIO P". I use a VAIO UX with Vista as my combination PDA and laptop. I love it. It has all solid state memory, it is a little slower than I would prefer with some things but overall performs pretty well. And the otehr day I called Sony support about the battery issue and got excellent service. 

The only thing I don't like about the UX is that it uses Sony Memory Sticks rather than the mroe standard SD cards that my cameras, for instance, use. I would love to be able to take a photo with my pockete camera (which is pretty sophisticated) then pull out the card, put it in the UX and see it on that screen and/or send it directly to Facebook. I would consider getting a Sony pocket camera, but I really like the Canon Digital Elphes (my present one is my third, and I jusdt got it last fall).

So I hope that answers your question. If not send me an email directly.

BTW, Jeff also has a UX, and he has a mjuch better grasp of the technical aspects of it than I do.

Bert, have you tried VAIO P ? Or have a friend who has tried it? What is their comment? I ask YOU this (and not other person from 'device' forum) since I see that you use / ever used SP, DB6, Pimlical.

Jeff, what about Java for MicroEnvironment which is usually available on many phone such as Nokia, Motorola and many others?

Thank you.
