Yes, yes! That's it! I "upgraded" from a monochrome Sony to a color
Palm. I used to carry my Sony in my shirt pocket all day and used it
constantly throughout the day. The Palm Zire 72 fit in my pocket
until the finish started to flake off and I bought a hard case to
protect the finish and now the thing is like carrying around a big,
flat rock. I've gotten used to carrying the Palm around in my hand or
dropping it into my pants pocket but it's a compromise at best. I
love the color screen but really loved the size and battery life of
the Sony.

Wish I could give you some good advice on a purchase but no such luck.
