Hi, Dave

Our goal is to compete with Palm OS machines. I will tell you what I can
right now, you will need to look at the website to find out some of this. I
will tell you what I can, the new palm will use high-res color screens, and
32, 64, or 128 megs of RAM depending on the model. Some of the models will
have a Compact Flash Type Two. We want to make something new, something Palm
and Sony consider to expensive to produce. We are starting a new company for
the same reason as anyone else, to make money. But we also want something
good quality, that is better than anything on the market now, but
affordable. I feel that the Treo will come out eventually, but when? I don't
know. We definitely are going to integrate wireless into some models, a lot
of people (me included) are very busy and may have to check there e-mail on
the go or make a call or surf the web. If you have any questions or
comments, feel free to e-mail me.

Jeffrey McMurtrie, CEO Handmedia



WOOOOHOOO! INNOVATION BABY!

Now...who wants to buy my Prism off me? HAHA! (j/k)



P.S. Sorry Handspring

Well, technically, three letters and a character.

Does this company even have a web site? Or is that vaporware too?

Um, decide for yourself

And then some!

Whatever it was, it seems to have been a "good call" by someone.
