[rescue] Really Useful PDA (pocket computers)

[rescue at sunhelp.org]

Got two of them.  One was "upgraded" to 8 meg and double 
speed. (Can go to 64 meg last I heard)  Used it for 
grades, inventory, etc with a dos database program when 
my principal banned laptops (another weird story).  Used 
it for several years until the ban was lifted.  Now I 
use my Tadpole.   Still carry around the 200 though.
