Other sites
CompuServe: Go HPHAND		Visit the HPHAND form for all manner of LX resources. (However, due to technical changes to the CompuServe network which have alienated many palmtop users and the popularity of the HPLX mailing list, this forum is becoming less and less popular).
Digital Paths (portal)		This is a free service aimed mainly at palmtop users that strips web pages of their graphics and all the fancy formatting which are little more than a waste of time and resources on a screen such as that of the LX. Users of D&A Software's excellent HV browser can go to the portal at www.digitalpaths.net where they can browse the Internet without the trimmings, but with plenty more speed.
D&A Software		D&A produce high-quality commercial applications for the palmtop, their most famous being the highly-renowned WWW/LX internet solution.
