...some time now, I have been locked in a spiraling love-hate relationship with Real Networks. Specifically with Real Jukebox, the company's oh-so-promising yet oh-so-frustrating MP3 management software.

Unlike the Palms, which won devotees for their elegant simplicity, Pocket PCs have been criticized for trying to cram in too many features. Such luxuries as a built-in MP3 player and high-resolution color screens have resulted in heavier, pricier offerings that start at $350--vs. $150 for an entry-level Palm...
