OK, so now we're going to see homeless people walking around with Visor Deluxes with todo items such as:
[ ]Look in trash can for food
[ ]Annoy pedestrians
[ ]Apply for food stamps

While Handspring did start a small program to give Visors away, you did notice that the main point of this article was that they were giving *cash* to these non-profits, didn't you?

Hey, pretty funny but uninformed comments. - these Visors are probably going to the staff of these organizations and if trained, they would certainly benefit!
Sigh
Nonprofits provide vital services. I wish they would consider our urban after school programs run by churches and other comm.unity groups. It's the kids who find the ise for the technology.
Not funny

Hey IM Anonymous: Handspring is giving free Visors to the those who work for the charities, not the homeless! As one who has done volutreering for the homeless, your remarks were not funny.
give to non-profit

Is this only for non-profit organisations? Or just for any company that helps people? A company could be helping people, get the visors for free and then sell them on ebay and donate the money! talk about fast cash!
