wait a minute...

This news might not be to exciting for most Visor owners, but for me it's a different story. I received a Visor Solo for my birthday 2 summers ago and am now currently looking for another Visor. I think these handhelds are just what I needed...and maybe for the masses who have not owned a handheld yet it's the same thing for them also. I don't know. I like the fast lookup feature, which I thought was one of the best things going for the Edge. I would definitely use this feature...no doubt about it. I also like the silent alarm. For me right now, being a student...I just can't afford to buy a color device because that means I'd have to shell out at least $400. Besides I really don't need color. It would be nice...don't get me wrong, but for some people it's just not a necessity. The Pro looks nice with the 16 mb, but that,too, might be a little too much for my student assistant income. Right now my memory is maxed on my Solo, because I'm using more than 500 K for Wordsmith and associated docs alone. Plus I have 4.0 Student for classes which is taking around 200 K and I've only begun to write all my assignments. For the Visor Solo...apps add up and I find myself basically with no memory. These handhelds would also be nice, since I could use my keyboard (which I think is one of the main reasons why the Edge didn't do so well).
I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm definitely looking at buying either the Neo or Pro and I just wanted to let some people know that I personally think that these handhelds are not geared for those Prism and Platinum owners but for those people that find themselves in a similar situation as me.

I do have a few questions though. With an internal 16 mb Visor would one need to buy a new backup module...instead of those on the market right now?

Also, for the Neo's- aren't the batteries going to drain faster when one uses the silent alarm alot?

Any comments would be great. Thanks

Mike
