Dell is offering 10% off on all handhelds bought from their webstore. They carry, Palm, Sony, HandEra, and Handspring models. -slammerfly

HandHeldCrime has just released its twenty-seventh issue, which includes an excerpt from David Grand's new literary noir novel The Disappearing Body plus the usual complement of free, stand-alone crime fiction. It features short stories by David White, Bob Stevens, Hugh Lessig, Anthony Neil Smith, Gay Toltl Kinman, and Jennifer Spray. -Jamey Dumas

Gateway sells Palm, Sony, and HandEra models.

This may seem obvious but Sony sells Windows computers and Palm OS handhelds, too.

Dell: They carry, Palm, Sony, and Handspring models.

Minstrel Support?

PIC mobile user @ 3/22/2002 1:27:13 PM #
The real problem is that even if Minstrel (Novatel Wireless) supports the modem with the m515, the service providers need to support it too! Unfortunately, they're not ready to support it yet. Earthlink (Omnisky) doesn't have a date that they expect to support the m515 with the Minstrel modem.

I am using my Minstrel m500 with my m515 for weeks now.

HandheldCrime

I heartily recommend HandheldCrime! If you are a crime/mystery fan (or even if you've never read a single crime/mystery story), give 'em a try. I had never read much crime/mystery fiction, but after the first episode, I was hooked!
