My ipaq works, for small values of `work', when I bother to use it.

The problem is that its only connectivity is via wi-fi, which I just
don't find usable for sustained sessions while wandering around in
arbitrary places; it's like trying to run a diskless Sun through two
gateways (the kind that often dropped back-to-back packets [Proteon?])
to its server, circa 1986.  Sometimes it works and sometimes it just
mysteriously and annoyingly goes away.

Plus the screen really is just too tiny to do anything serious.
