Sounds wonderful, but by the time they make it through the pipeline I'll either be retired or I'll get a Treo 700w just as the Treo 2800p with XM radio and GPS is released. Currently, a Palm IIIc is what they offer me (seriously!)

Sure why not? If it's good enough for a fictional show...

used by Jack Bauer, some Counter Terrorism Unit guy on [i]24[/i], it stands to reason it'll be good enough for 'our' government as well.
