A Handheld WP?

A Handheld WP?
I'm looking for a handheld word processor. All I'd need is something that basically has "Wordpad" on it, and will allow me to generate a 1mb .txt file if I wanted to! No bells, whistles, or graphics. And a firewire port to u/l the text file to my 'puter. So any suggestions?

Its called a notebook. I suggest you invest in the pen upgrade to avoid using your own blood.

Pay no mind to these heathens. Dried leaves and sparrow blood have always worked for me.
In all seriousness, you might want to invest in a Palm Pilot or Visor. The best person to ask is Kynes since he's apparently some sort of living computer god.

Re: A Handheld WP?
Up until here, I was going to say "Psion Revo" (Diamond Mako over there, I think). I've had mine for a few months, and I don't use it for anything but word-processing. Or go with a series 5mx if you need a backlight. And with Psion pulling out of the market, they're going for a song. But...Lord Poe wrote:I'm looking for a handheld word processor.

All the Psions used serial connections (or IR). And their connecting software at the PC end is a little erratic, although if you just want to transfer stuff back and forth it works fine.No bells, whistles, or graphics. And a firewire port to u/l the text file to my 'puter. So any suggestions?
edit: Ought to tell you where to get one, really.

Doesn't look like they have new ones any more.

They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong
