On The Net – Palmtop User

Palmtop User’s roundup
of the Internet from a handheld user’s perspective…

Palmtop
User was launched in August 2002, seeing the merger between Palmtop and
PalmUser magazines – two publications that have been serving the handheld computer
market since 1994.

In each issue of Palmtop
User magazine, On The Net (written by Pete Sipple), takes a look
at what’s new on the Internet, what’s being said in the newsgroups, and
points out some top sites that you may have missed.

For reference, here’s
a summary of the sites we’ve visited.
