Bereft
Friday night my Handspring: Treo 90 took a dive into the cats' water dish. Despite careful drying, it's kaput. I don't know how to function without it! I keep everything in it. I printed out my calendar, but dang it, it doesn't beep and remind me to do things! Ghaaaaaaaa!

I bought an extended service plan from Office Max, but so far I'm not impressed. On Saturday, when I called, they gave me a phone number for a local service place open only during the week. When I called them on Monday, they told me that they don't do computer service any more. I called the service plan back, and now I'm waiting (since Monday...) for a pre-paid box to appear so I can mail it in to their service center. Then I'll have to wait for them to determine if it can be fixed. And then wait for it to be shipped back. If they can't fix it, I'll get an Office Max gift card for the original value of the PDA. Naturally, the Treo isn't made any more, so then I'll need to try to find something else for $299 (shouldn't be hard -- prices keep coming down, new PDA's keep coming out).

But... in the meantime... I am just lost without my PDA...
