The problem with palm is most users find they have to haul a laptop around (or find a workstation) in addition to their palm in order to satisfy all their needs. With Pocket PC we're starting to hear people say "With this thing I don't need my laptop anymore", and that's how many people can justify spending >$500 on a pda and why palm continues to loose market share to Pocket PC.
Maybe we should start using tools like YAP and other tools referenced in this article to catch students trying to cheat on their Computer Science assignments. Some of these actually compare the compilation trees of two programs so even changing variable names and comments and stuff will still turn up to be the same program. It would be interesting to see what some of these tools would turn up if you starting comparing say BSD code with Linux.
I find the outbound logging (I use the LinkSys) the most effective parental control. While restricting site access and some of the other access control software you can buy are OK, the kids are a lot more paranoid when they know you are logging every single URL they request (;
