if your going to get a palm, make sure you get one with wifi so you can browse the web or at least bluetooth so you can connect to a mobile phone. but i would recommend the windows mobile, it has a block recognizer for typeing, which is actually graffiti 1 not 2, so its much easier than graffiti 2. graffiti 2 has 2 strokes for some letters. but also the other reason i would recommend a windows mobile powered device, is because you get the 240X320 pixel display which is better than 240X240. although some palm os devices have 320X320, that is on the more expensive devices. also with windows mobile 2003SE which is on most of the devices now, supports landscape mode. so its a scaled down version of a real desktop screen. you can get the new VGA deviceds that sport a 640X480 display which would be great for internet, but prepare to pay at least 500 - 600 dollars canadian, lower else where, but none the less expensive. windows mobile has a version of pocket office that has word and excel, although i have never used either becuase im only 15 and have no use for those programs, i mainly use my HP iPAQ RX3115 for internet, and its great. well i hope this helps, but i have to go or else i would write more. hope that helps!
