A few questions...
Which spreadsheet and word pro apps have you used with the Clip'n'Go?
Have experienced any problems with specific programs?
How dows the Clip'n'Go access the data on the OG?
Can it access the data files on the OG directly?
Does the user need to copy the data on the OG first and then Paste on the PC?
> "allows multi tasking on the OG" What?
Sorry to be picky, but remeber its C'n'G or the dread Connectivity Pack, and
neither have glowing histories.
Dave.
