I disagree as well with the direction this article took, to award the prize to Palm. I am the proud owner of 3 generations of Ipaq and I've never had a complaint. Pocket PCs are inherently beefier, have more memory, and power than a Palm. The fact that you don't have to use Grafitti alone is enough reason to award it the prize. Also, you don't have to convert Office documents if you set the option in ActiveSync. The only way to beat a PocketPC with a Palm, is to turn a Palm into a PocketPC.
