Hi Robert. Glad to read this but it reminds me, have you been able to move the e-mail data base on to a cf card? I thought I'd heard that would be possible with this version, but am not sure. Have you tried the pk at home too online? Just wondering what your connection's like there and how the pk does there. Hopefully if you can shop on amazon, then even with the rejular bn and upgrade hopefully I'll be able to be at starbucks or in my apartment complex courtyard and go to my bank's web site and check my balance.
