The deciding factor for me to buy the OmniGo was the fact it was one of
the few palmtops that supported a pen, had some sort of handwriting
recognition, and also had a full keyboard. I was pleasantly supprised to
find out it was a scaled-down version of a PC running GEOS.
The HP 200LX didn't support pen-based input of any form, and cost twice as
much as the OGO. Hence, I bought OmniGo.
One thing to keep in mind is the HP200LX has been out for quite a while,
and even longer if you include the HP95LX and HP100LX. These systems have
created a large software base for them. If you wait about a year, you
will see a significant increase in the software available for the HP
OmniGo.
If you are looking for a DOS-based PC without much graphical support,
maybe the 95/100/200LX line is for you. But if you would like the option
of writing, drawing and typing, and are willing to sacrafice some
compatability, the OmniGo is for you.
