Has anyone here ever owned/used a handheld computer such as a Poqet PC or an HP 200LX?

Just been looking at these and the term "iWant" sprang to mind.

The Poqet and HP run MS-DOS, have QWERTY keyboards and run off AA batteries.

Newer HPs run Windows CE and tend to be cheaper on ebay, as well as more plentiful. Maybe these days a DOS system would be more useful than A CE system, probably due to compatibility with desktop computers.

I've also been having a look at some PSION systems, which look nice, but might be a bit limiting to me due to running EPOC OS.

I watched a video on YouT00b of someone using a TRS-80 Model 100. That looks nice. It has a good keyboard and BASIC interpretter, but again, is a bit limited if you are not writing your own programmes. It also looks rather big.

Meanwhile, for the ultimate in portability, someone is selling an IBM 5155 on ebay, currently at GBP320: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=150584313837
