I guess I was a little harsh in critizing the product support areas.
Tandy's doesn't appear to have any Zoomer-specific info -- if some is
there, it's buried among the other Tandy products. Casio does have
useful information and I'm sure that it's only a beginning.
The bulk of my disappointment about what is available to Zoomer AOL
users is that other forums and services aren't available. I'd love
to be able to get at the PDA forum from my Zoomer. Since I live and work
in silicon valley, I was kind of hoping to have access to Mercury Center.
And the Internet stuff would have been nice too. Really, I don't see
why the AOL folks didn't make their full system available to Zoomer PDA
users.
