...future; it's better for navigating menus and playing games. Even the keyboard version of the Treo comes with a stylus. But I prefer Graffiti the way it comes on the new Clie.

The smart money has the national wireless infrastructure shaping up as a hybrid of Wi-Fi and 2.5G or 3G, with Wi-Fi offering high speeds at low or no cost over very small areas and the Gs covering wide areas at lower speeds and relatively high cost.

Eberharter will be tough to beat in downhill and super-G." Austria also has the top-ranked woman in Michaela Dorfmeister, another speed freak. To find Europe's best mogul...
