As far as what the Zoomer name means, it was originally the "codename" of
the Casio/Tandy/Geoworks project before it was released. That is, the device
know as the Z-PDA, Z-7000, etc. I forget why they came up with the term
Zoomer, but it stuck. It wasn't planned to be the final product name. So now,
from what I understand, anything with the "Zoomer" logo on it means it is a
Zoomer compatible product.
