It looks like you're expecting more from a palmtop than most people. I don't use IR modems and haven't run into a bug with PalmOS severe enough to warrant a full upgrade yet. What do you do to yours?

I like to be able to use the web when I am in the middle of nowhere and have had to use my palm for email access in the past. IR mobile phones are very handy, I just wish my Vaio had an IrDA port instead of the stupid Memory stick. I also don't like the policy of not releasing the OS4.0 upgrade yet, I want(ed) OS4.0 because it included the mobile internet kit which they want 20UKP for! I would pay 30UKP for the OS upgrade but they refuse to release it.

[...] anyway my less than 2 month old 3Com pcmcia network card broke tonight so I guess maybe quality is lacking somewhere in the production line at those ppl.

Palm != 3com. Not for some time now.

Yeah, but both of my palm devices say on the back 3com, also the Palm office is less than a stones throw from the 3com hq. I am seriously thinking about an Ipaq now (there is a new model coming out v.soon) as they have full multimedia and support compact flash cards. It seems that the Palm is a little dated now, as I can't see any real innovation with the latest models (at least nothing thats worth my money), they still have slow dragonball processors and have a new type of expansion interface.

I am on IRC, just in a different channel, why aren't you on #alug. or if you are then I am nearly there as far as drinking goes ;-) but I just caught you anyway.

Damn. It's Monday.
