Useful to know - I've been considering the switch back to PalmOS with
the UX50 as well. Mainly because they sync with everything. The only
turn-off for me was the built in (weak) camera. If I'm going to take
photos, I'll use a real digital camera - it's like the whole
printer/copier/fax machine mess over again. Now built in 802.11b would
be nice, but it only has Bluetooth, right?

I haven't used PalmOS in a while (original Handspring). Does this lack
of multi-tasking mean you cannot read an e-book while listening to
music?
