        Sounds like you know something about the 701's. May I ask a
few questions?

        The display--256 colors or 64,000? (You wrote "256K" but I
think that might be a mistake--please clarify).

        Also, can this thing actually be used outside? (i.e., is
the screen viewable outdoors? My 750C is *terrible* for outdoor
viewing...).

        Battery life (realistic) is...? Can you change to a new
battery on the fly like on the 750's?

        Many thanks--I'm thinking of buying one of these things and
I want to know what I'm getting into. ;-)
