How do you boot up faster than "instantly"? I hit the power button on my Pocket
PC, and it's on, right where I left it. If I left Pocket Fritz running when I
turned my Pocket PC off, it's still running when I turn it back on. If it takes
you 7 seconds on a Palm, that's 7 secongs longer than it takes on my Pocket PC.

There are many things that people like better about the Palm, and the Palm may
be a better choice (especially if you're on a tight budget), but I don't think
boot up time is a valid one.
