Comments on: AlphaSmart Licenses Palm OS
They are the developer of the AlphaSmart 3000, a low-cost, portable computer used by millions of students in the United States and throughout the world. The PalmOS-based products the company will be creating won't replace the AlphaSmart 3000; instead the two will work together, with the PalmOS products typically costing more than the current ones.

RE: About time!
RE: About time!
I imagine one with a keyboard, mouse and say an 8 inch screen. They would probably be great as desktop type models for schools, where as students could sync with them to standard palm devices for assignments and such.
Damn, almost makes me want to be back in high school ;)
RE: About time!
The eMate was really good, but it didn't have the developer support that Palm has, and didn't have a lot of other things that make Palm OS simple and easy to use. The eMate also cost $1000, which was way too high. Only Mac-fanatics bought them. I think something with Palm OS could be cheaper and better than the eMate, and the market is readier for it. Apple definitely paved the way for Palm Pilots with the Newton, and I think they've done the same with the eMate.

Weird dream, eh? heheh I am such a dork. :-
It sounds like psion
I think EPOC is better suit the students' purpose than Palm OS. Word and excel compatible programs are included in the EPOC OS, so students don't have to shell out to buy office compatible suite on palm os machine.
Just my 2cents.
