I thought I'd let you guys know (and P1, if they're listening) that I'm ready for a new PDA (tired of the digitizer/screen problems.) I decided to stay within the Palm OS family, because as a Mac guy it doesn't make sense to get a mini PC (even if there's third party software to make the Sync smooth.)
With Sony out of the U.S. market, the only other choice was Tapwave's Zodiac. I like the spec's, except for a few things...
1) The size is bulky compared to the Tungsten T family, but I like the full-time tablet form.
2) Going from Palm OS 5.4 to OS 5.2 seems like a more drastic step back in time than it really is. I miss being able to write on the screen and that little toolbar that I can press on to check on the battery life and such.
I hope to still hang out with you guys here from time to time, because the Palm solutions are in this forum. No one visits the Zodiac forum here on Palm Blvd. For Zodiac specific threads, I'm afraid that I'll have to go someplace else, but for Palm OS business, there's no place better than here.
So, if P1 gets it together in the next incarnation I may come back to the fold. But since I need a working Palm OS device now, the Zodiac2 does it for me. And with the 2 year thingy from CompUSA, if any company comes out with a better solution, I can upgrade.
So, I'll miss you guys when I'm gone, but I promise to visit and write from time to time. Currently, I'm having issues HotSync-ing, but I may have to go elsewhere for my solution because no one here uses Missing Sync (or do they?)
I know, hope springs eternal.

P.S. Maybe when I return, we'll get rid of the T|5 "stickies" since it's been announced and released we never had stickies for any previous incarnations of the Tungsten line.
