The Palm Pilot absolutely SPANKED the Newton (I had both). The Palm "just worked". I can't say the same for the Newton.

Agreed, as long as you could figure out how to write the Palm language. no problem for me, it was very similar to the way I wrote anyway. I did miss the Newton promise of integrated smarts. We haven't really had anything like that since. Even the iOS devices are a collection of apps that may or may not work together.
