I certainly like gadgets. When I drive somewhere, I usually have some combination of items: a GPS with local street maps, radar detector (to keep tabs on The Man), cell phone, camera (digital or film), and my monster Timex Helix wristwatch (barometer, compass, thermometer, etc.). If I had to do without any or all of them, though, it wouldnt be a problemtheyre fun, but not essential.
But I do not own a palmtop computer.
Make no mistake, I want one. Or, rather, I want to want onethe science-fiction fan in me just loves the idea of carrying a computer and a ton of useful information in my pocket.
