[pct-l] Pocketmail devices

[kdpo at pacbell.net (Ken Powers)]

We have used both the Sharp and the Composer. I have never heard of the JVC,
but I assume it is pretty much the same as the Sharp. The Sharp doesn't
support all the newest phones, but that is usually not a problem along the
PCT unless you plan to use cell phones. The Sharp hasn't been manufactured
for several years. If you buy it you are getting a refurbished unit. For us
ounce weenies, the Sharp is acouple of ounces lighter.


I think the Sharp would work fine for the PCT.
