In order to fit "My Bible" as well as all the stuff I need for work on my Palm III I need to utilize FlashPro in order to give me another ~696k. That brings me up to a "whopping" 2.6 meg. machine.

I have just purchased a Palm IIIx with keyboard at an online auction, and this will give me (with FlashPro) 4.6 meg. Then the Palm III will become a work machine, left in the office to do time tracking and schedule appointments, and the IIIx will become a "Jerry" machine with my Bible, some good reformed docs, and some ham radio software.

Sounds like some real PDA fun to me. And, not too far back, I would have scoffed at the idea that these devices are useful. Finally, they're substantial enough in storage and display to be taken seriously. They already have 1 gigabyte flash memories on the market. And they're bringing out the Oqo which is a pocket-sized micro-notebook that runs full-blown Windows XP and can dock as a regular desktop computer.

It's the future. But for now, these smaller devices can already deliver a tremendous wallop. I know a lot of techs who store vast amounts of PDF technical documents on the PDAs already.
