Re: [Handhelds] Re: [iPAQ] Prodution on the IPAQ halted ? New ver. on the way ?

yeah - that's why I asked you folks ... I suspect it's just rumor or the
Compaq support folks tap dancing ... understandable due to short supply
(they don't have any replacments to send to customers) and this seems to
be a white hot product ... I would not want to be working for Compaq
support right now ...

Now if I could just find one ... I want Linux on a PDA so bad ... well,
if I have to wait any longer, I may "pop" Neo like did in the Matrix ;)
