Got to disagree here, I have both a Pocket Computer and a PDA two totaly
different beasts. A Pocket Computer has a built in programable capabilaty
but in terms of fixed abiliaties is little more than a high powered
calculator, A PDA on the other hand only has the abilaty to be programed as
an usually expensive extra but in terms of fixed abilaties has the capasity
to be used as a notebook/database/calendar/address book.
Of course if anyone can tell me how to emulate the Amiga on ether then I
will be quite happy to dump the above in the nearest dustbin.
