RE: Almond Palm
Almond paste is also known as marzipan; now can I get an IPAQ-sized one?
RE: Almond Palm
Yes, but only for the newer models. The old version spoiled easily because of its shorter shelf life... (LOL)

Almond Paste Palm
I wonder if they'll have to refund the money in a few months because they discovered that it's not REAL almond paste (like whatever that handheld was that they made a "mistake" about the screen resolution. I hope that the static discharge from the hotsync cradle doesn't ruin the flavor. ;-)
RE: Almond Paste Palm
I like the idea of eddible PDAs . . . but almond paste isn't necessarily my first choice. Start talking chocolate (but you have to be careful not to over clock it or anything; might start to melt!) or a sweet-tart type candy and you've cought my attention (and my wallet)
Mmmm . . . yummy palmies,

I love my Palm . . . do you?

Love isn't about becoming somebody else's "perfect person." Rather, it's about finding someone who helps you become the best person you can be.
