Hi Voytek, My old Palm III suffered from very poor alkaline battery life - so a few years back I heaved it (after beaming the contents to a new Tungsten E2), which has excellent Li-Ion battery life, and has been everything I need it for. Graffiti is excellent, apart from the rare multi-stroke character, so I've learnt to just use the onscreen keyboards for those items, instead of friggin' around with multiple attempts! I like the automatic CAPS feature of the area between Alpha and Numeric windows! It has flash memory - so no losses ever.
