what junk2004-11-11
I write under very special conditions. I was using a palm with a keyboard, but I found it not to be powerful enough. A laptop was too heavy, the battery life was miserable, and it took forever to turn on. I found a jornada on Ebay. It is a piece of junk! They get constant memory losses, and it took a week for the screen to fall right off its hinges. I got another and it was wiped with the most crucial information of my life. Like you I read negative revues and gave it the benefit of the doubt(after all I love all electronics), but heed my warning STAND CLEAR.

Perfect for students2003-04-02
it is a great product for typing documents in word, but a little confusing on internet hookup, a little pricy if bought new
Great, but I would like to see more!2002-04-18
These companies of HPCs are playing the market. This Jornada 680, has the size and portability that a laptop doesn't have, and I love it for that, but the features are pittyful! If the size were a little bigger, than they could easily put in a 10 Gig hard-drive, 64mb ram, and 400+ mHz proccesor. A PERFECT example of this is a small sony laptop, but I do not remember the model name. It is a little larger than my Jornada, but has a 30 Gig HD, 700MHZ proccesor, 128 RAM, and Windows XP!!!... I recommend you wait, prices will DROP, and new FAST, SMALL, SEXY proccesors are coming out!!!

Driving with a cell phone is a lot less dangerous than driving on prescription drugs
There's a lot of debate today about the safety of using cell phones while driving. Statistics show that those who use cell phones while driving cause a much greater percentage of accidents than those who avoid using their cell phones. And the studies have shown that it's not just the physical coordination required to punch numbers into the cell phone while you're trying to work the vehicle that causes accidents; it's actually the lack of attention resulting from driving and talking on the cell phone at the same time. It seems that when you're distracted, you're more likely to cause accidents. In terms of public safety, it's probably correct to say that banning cell phones would reduce the number of traffic accidents. But I think, more accurately, it depends on the person. Some people are operating on, shall we say, lower power CPUs in their heads to begin with. They might be zoned out on prescription drugs, and when you add a cell phone to the equation, they do become a danger to the ...
