Hello All,

Absolutely remarkable! My Zoomer is as fast (and a bit faster) than my friends
Newton. This thing screams along- extremely fast, as fast as an Omnigo. If you have
Chris D's Enhanced Zoomer Plus package loaded the thing flys almost as fast as
executing the Palm Computing applications (Address Book, Date Book and Note Book)
under GEOS Ensemble 2.0 on my Pentium desktop.

FYI- my configuration is a Zoomer (speed upgrade installed), with a 10 MB SunDisk
PCMCIA card running Stacker Anywhere, Enhanced Zoomer Plus package installed, with
the latest MOTIF.GEO in my System file.

First- I set my preferences up to file link at 9600 bps. Then, I backed up
everything on B using GEOS Ensemble 2.0, connected- reloaded B, inserted PCMCIA and
reset. It came up flawlessly. I should mention that if you want to talk to GEOS
Ensemble 2.0 (or Palm Connect or GeoPublish) you need to set your PC to 19200 BPS and
the Zoomer (in preferences) to 9600. Since the Zoomer is running at 2x speeds- 9600
becomes 19200.

Without a doubt well worth the $66.00 total upgrade price. If you haven't had your
Zoomer upgraded you must do it. Second to Graffiti- it's a must have!

Have fun, Arthur Tyde
