John, I empathize with your perception regarding re the need for frequent reboots. At the same time I have to say, however, that in the case of my Microsoft PPC based PDA I really take pleasure (I kid you not) from the fact that if something screws up in the software I can reboot and it only takes 5 seconds or so, thus taking me back to a time when computer reboots were really fast even though the processors were orders of magnitude slower! In other words, I get a sense of being back in control out of the act of the quick reboot.
