SAT Update

[Jonathan Finger]

Bah!  You can get a new Toshiba E740 online for about $350.  That's not
much, considering it's just about the best PDA on the market right now.
I have both an iPAQ, and this new Toshiba, and the Toshiba blows the
iPAQ out of the water. :)

With these "new and improved features" along with all the others that 
are being suggested, let's not forget an intragal ATM port loaded with 
an unlimited supply of $100's to help pay for the thing;-)
