When did this turn into a CE discussion?  Last time I checked, CE didn't
even work with Linux at all -- no sync option or anything.

With that said, I could really use a replacement for EudoraWeb on my
Kyrocera Phone.  Too bad Opera isn't available for it.

And none of the Linux PDAs have the sync capability of Palm, so I'm
stuck with Palm.  Using Evolution and the Kyrocera SmartPhone, I'm in
heaven.  The SmartPhone even works as a generic, Hayes AT compatible
14.4Kbaud modem, so I can use it with Linux on the road.

Then use the stupid virtual keyboard!  Geez!
At least in Palm, you have a _choice_!

Gotta love that Sharp Zarus though with its 3rd option.

   CE:  virtual keyboard only
 Palm:  stylus grafiti or virtual keyboard
Zarus:  stylus grafiti, virtual keyboard or thumb keyboard
