  1. I prefer my Newton. by generic-man · · Score: 0, Troll
    Although I'm sure this PDA is highly "advanced" for a "Windows" "Operating System," it still can't hold a candle to my trusty old Apple Newton MessagePad 2000. Allow me to summarize the advantages of my *real* handheld over this so-called "Fujitsu" "PDA".
    • My Apple Newton MessagePad 2000 has real handwriting recognition, whereas Micro$oft Winblows CE (note clever use of subliminal imagery) does not. Learn a new handwriting scheme? No thanks, Billy-Bob. (That's a reference to Bill Gates, Chairman of Micro$oft (not "Microsoft."))
    • My Apple Newton MessagePad 2000 has a PCMCIA (Personal Computer Memory Card International Association) slot for easy expansion, whereas those dolts at "Fu" "jitsu" didn't put one in to their so-called "innovative" "PDA." Nice try, guys. While you're listening to "digital music", I'll be surfing the Internet using a real web browser and getting e-mail on a large screen.
    • I am boycotting Micro$oft, but I am not boycotting Apple. Another plus for me!
    In short, please do not support these so-called "advancements" in "technology." My Newton is all the PDA that any user could ever need. If you think otherwise, I should LART you with my clue stick!
