Mike, the PDA is your friend. The trick is to force yourself to use them for about two weeks, and then it becomes harder to put them back on the shelf.
Rolo, I like to the look of the Vulcan, and heard about my former boss entering into this market. I still have my Libretto 110CT.

Mine is actually the rarer 266MHz model and I upgraded the hard drive on it to a 6.4GB HDD. There has been a time when I found all my systems on the blink, and used this as my sole machine for about a month. It is close to the same size of the Vulcan. The one thing I didn't like about it was that I had to plug in an external KB and mouse, the keys were just way too small for any real typing.
I would have liked to see Allen disclose which CPU is driving the mini PC. X86 compatible screams something like a Transmeta chip, because with that size, cooling is definitely going to be an issue. For $1500+ dollars, I wouldn't want to run a Transmeta chip. Also, I would rather throw down a few extra dollars and go with a lightweight laptop. Right now, I have the IBM X31, which comes in at about 3lbs and is the size of a book. I carry it everywhere I go.
