- Basicly I've done this. Although I do have a scientific calculator
- watch it's getting quite old and three of the buttons have popped off
- making it hard to do any calculations involving the digit "3" or anything
- beyond the basic four functions.

- Unfortunately I don't know of any credit card sized machines with
- upload/download capability that are still available. Generally
- machines this size are quite limited, generally no more than 10KB RAM
- and only a simple 4 function calculator. Even somewhat larger machines
- have only better keyboards and displays. Most machines with a serial
- port are well over US$200.
-
- I use an HP-95LX MS-DOS palmtop computer. You can get archived news
- articles and other information on this and other machines via anonymous
- ftp to csd4.csd.uwm.edu:/pub/Palmtop.
