[comp.sys.handhelds] PALMTOPS vs. HP48

Why is it so imperative that the hp48 proposal be pulled if there is
plenty of support for the palmtops proposal?!? It seems to me that if
we kept them BOTH that, if only ONE was mandated, the other would
be VOTED out. If BOTH were voted for, why is that so bad? Seems to me
that could be the BEST solution.

I certainly don't see any rule that says that this later proposal
has to completely pre-empt the previous one. Instead of 'voluntarily'
pulling the .hp48 proposal, I think we should let the voters decide
which one to keep (if not both) and which one to trash (if not both).
