The quest to buy a handheld to run Squeak continues. It looks like I can get an iPAQ or HP in Switzerland. Compaq does english though, so I'll probably get that.

Now, how to communicate? We could use PocketMac to do ActiveSync. $50 + $20 or so.

Another choice would be to buy the CF sleeve for the iPAQ for CHF 60 and a CompactFlash card, and then a Compact Flash USB reader, say the Microtech Zio which Macs.ch seems to have.

Another choice is to buy the CF modem and use that, though expensive.
