        Palm Computing is developing applications for the emerging
        class of consumer palmtop computers.  Their focus is on
        mass-market machines weighing under one pound, consuming
        little power, and priced around $500.  Palm is a partner
        with Tandy and Casio on the Zoomer personal information
        processor.
        
        In this special presentation, Donna Dubinsky, president/CEO
        of Palm Computing and former co-founder of Claris, explains
        how the components are now in place for this market to grow
        rapidly.  She will explain the opportunities this new
        market presents, and she will provide an overview of the
        types of applications we can expect to see in the coming
        months.  Palm's exciting new application software will be
        demonstrated live, so you can witness first-hand what all
        the excitement is about!
