As a long term palm user I am looking to upgrade soon as weel. The thing is that Handspring look increasingly better IF you want plug in modules.
The slot in the new palm looks too small for anything other than ram/software stuff, ut the handspring can take GPS, MP3 etc etc
I still prefer the idea of a "propper" palm mind you.

Ro,
i have got a V (the original 2MB model) and i am looking seriously at the colour version. Newer OS, more memory, faster, oh, and COLOUR!
I also fancy an iPaq, but i would miss the month or so battery life of the Palm (and don't really need all the fancy stuff for just shopping lists and a phone book
). Then again, the expansion jacket with an HSCSD card or microdrive, surfing on the road, video?
Humm, M505 at GBP352 from Jungle in ten days time - tempting!

One reason I ask is that a guy at work says the colour screen has received mixed reviews - apparantly its not very sharp & the colours are a bit "dull" when viewed.
Cant believe Palm would get it wrong - & he was an Ipaq User !
The one thing I really dont like about the IPaq compared to the Palm is the size...for me its too big & bulky.
