For the price, there doesn't seem to be too much to complain about,
except for the lack of a backlight.  The idea is probably to get people
hooked with a cheap Palm, then they buy something more expensive.  I went
from a PalmPilot Professional (1MB of RAM) to a Palm Vx, so I know that
the strategy works.  ;-)
