Conclusion

My overall view of the VD is very favorable. I can’t wait to see what Springboards will come out, and how much they’ll cost. I’m also looking forward to the Palm Vx, to see if they’ve added any features in addition to the larger amount of memory. The Palm vs. Visor discussion is available on Visorcentral.com, so I won’t re-hash it here, but I really like my VD - it’s become my daily-use machine. I’m still very much looking forward to the modem and keyboard becoming available.
