do your research better - the FIRST PDA with a HDD is the Linux-based Sharp Zaurus...

also, HDD in the LifeDrive is simply a CF-based microdrive (of course, our Ax can simply handle) - this was proven when somebody took apart his LD...

Palm is not innovating - what they basically do is "steal" ideas... cant be helped - they've already lost their creativity... and that is one of the reasons for the re-merger of PalmSource and PalmOne...

-- off topic probably, but...
Dual Communications!?! the Clie TH55 had that long long ago...
Virtual Graffiti? the Clie NX had that... First PalmOS5? the Clie...
Hi-Resolution/Hi-Resolution-Plus? the Clie...

if Sony didnt leave the market (due to internal bickerings since they wanted to pursue what has the most money - the PSP) - then Palm would still play catchup...
