No Harald.
The cheapest Handspring is the Visor, $149. But you don't have the cradle to
connect it to a PC, so you need the Visor at $179. You get an USB connection to
the PC.
On the other hand Palm's cheapest is the m100 at $149, and it has a SERIAL
connection to the PC (slower).
They are roughly comparable in features otherwise.
So there is not a $110 price difference. Only $30.
