I'm still undecided at this point in time.. I do have other things to 
compare it against though, such as a CDPD cradle (from Novatel Wireless),
and also a Metricom (metropolitan area) wireless modem attached to a 
normal PalmPilot.  The device is a true Palm III in every sense though..
I use PilotManager on my UltraSparc 30 to do the sync.  That is very
cool.

If enough people want it, I can put together a small report on my 
experiences with the device, plus contrasts with the other two wireless
forms I've mentioned above, once I get back from JavaOne, and have some
time to decompress after all the stress associated with that... #:)
