Just updated this week to a TX from a Handera 330. Great machine. Great c= onnectivity. It's a pleasure to wirelessly download email, read newsgroups = (with Y+ of course), and surf the net.=20=20 Y+ has been very stable. There have been a few bugs, mainly with the 5-wa= y and scroll bar, but that's for another report. The only Y+ related crash= occured after I exited Y+ for the first time, subsequent to re-installing = Y+ v.3.0 and my associated saved db's. After re-indexing, all was well. In reference to Y+ disconnecting from a wireless connection, a few cautions= : if you start your wireless connection automatically by polling, Y+ will d= isconnect after it finishes polling; the TX will disconnect from wi-fi or b= luetooth if no wireless activity in order to conserve battery power, and wi= ll very nicely reconnect when needed; nearby neighbors with wireless networ= ks who hide their SSID's and broadcast on your same channel will mess upcon= nectivity; and most importantly, a number of utilities will interfere with = apps related to connectivity. TextPlus for example, will crash the launch = of Blazer among other connectivity issues. Other utilities, such as those = that customize the statusbar or provide hack-type enhacements, can also adv= ersely affect the stability of the TX, even if they claim OS 5 compatabilit= y.=20=20 Because of this, I have had to abandon many valuable hacks and hack-type en= hancnements. Alas, such is the price of progress. If only Palm had consult= ed me prior to designing the TX.=20=20 Anyways, until Palm comes out with a =93Tungsten Howard=94, I'm quite happ= y with the TX. Oh yeah, Y+ is pretty nice too. Article downloads absolute= ly blaze with wi-fi. lt works with a wide variety of usenet servers. It'= s also my main newsgroup reader; 95% Y+, 5% Agent.=20 Howard ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~-->=20 Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
