The N810 is still too expensive for me, of course, but I expect the price to come down by the time I'd actually be in the market.

I'm actually surprised, when I really think about it, how few Palm-specific apps I really need. I'm sure there are good text editors and database programs for the Nokias (the latter could substitute for PalmThing). I only use eReader because I can automagically turn HTML into marked-up eReader files--gotta have my italics. If I could read HTML natively as an e-book, that would be great and save me a step. (The Cybook says it supports HTML, but if I were actually getting one instead of just cat-vacuuming, I'd want to find out just which HTML tags it recognized.)

Otherwise, there's Secret! and a shopping list, and again I'd be surprised if there weren't equivalents available. It would be a pain to move data over and relearn apps, but still.

The thing that I would worry about is whether I could use an external keyboard; a thumb one isn't going to work for panel notes and vacation typing.

However, it's all just cat vacuuming for me for the moment. Really.
