>>I just bought new Palm m100 - it's smaller than the rest - only 2Mb memory - but that's a lot IMHO. As far as it goes:
>>1 - Yes.
>>2 - Nothing yet. But then again I just got it.
>>3 - I do believe the Visor is more upgradable.
>>4 - I got the m100 because it gets me what I need for a whole lot cheaper than the rest of them. ($150).

One thing I was reminded of the other day is that my wife's Palm III is constantly needing new batteries (2 AAA's). Whereas my Palm V has a built-in rechargeable battery. I just have to put it in the cradle every couple of days to recharge it - but that reminds me to sync it as well.
