...been called Bunn, Wackett, Buzzard, Stubble and Boot, since you are fed up before the end of the chapter with reading that it might have been. The saving grace of Autobiography is that it's a handsome beast of a coffee-table book. The special edition comes with snap-on legs and a set of crockery - perhaps the book's best inside joke - and it is crammed with photographs that remind you what a uniquely funny (and extremely silly) team they were.

The size of a wall-mounted phone, it features oversize buttons that make it easy to enter grocery lists, reminders and phone messages.

Add-ons like a Kodak digital PalmPix camera module, clip-on MP3 player and printer are on the way, along with a dozen other peripherals. Why all the extra limbs? Because competition is intense in the digital jungle, and the Palm is being forced to evolve quickly. Visor, Handspring's handheld computer, runs Palm's operating system--but costs only $149--and features a special slot that allows it to morph into anything from a wireless telephone to a universal remote. It's such...
