Article: Getting e-mail on the run

Like millions of other people, I love my Palm hand-held computer. I have a Palm Vx, the slimmest and sleekest Palm, and I carry it everywhere to consult my calendar and address book and to make short notes.

But there's one crucial function my Palm can't perform: live, wireless e-mail. When I'm on the road, I'd like a hand-held computer that sends and receives e-mail wirelessly. Until recently, however, there wasn't a really good way to get this capability and still have a slender hand-held with a roomy screen.

I could add e-mail capability to my Palm Vx by using a number of options, but they all add too much bulk.
