  13. I'm curious about this system, and the implications of pen-based and
  14. mobile computers on operating systems. Carr's book about PenPoint
  15. seems like a decent summary. I was wondering whether there are other
  16. sources I might look at first -- eg, journal publications and the
  17. like. 
  18.  
  19. Anyone have references?
  20.  
  21. Anyone want to give a better summary? I just flipped through it in the
  22. bookstore.
