The Register: Sony to unveil Palm-based multimedia handheld, according to the WSJ, which apparently got a sneak preview. With a slot for a memory stick and possibly a Handspring-like Springboard expansion slot for modem etc., “The Sony device will weigh a light 5.3 ounces, be narrower than the

stylish Palm V and thinner than the Palm III, and come in

black-and-white as well as color versions,” explained an unusually

gushing Journal. It also boasts a “JogDial scrolling and highlighting

button that allows users to manoeuvre the screen with one hand”.
