Thanks for the information on this.  I was going to Akihabara to 
buy a pilot next week.  Maybe I'll wait now.

It appears that it might be the same hardware with just different
software, so that existing PalmPilots may be able to get a 
software upgrade.  Anyway, I'll probably wait a few months.

Craig
