HANDSPRING SEES CONTINUED GROWTH

Responding to questions about conditions in the handheld computing market, Donna Dubinsky, founder and CEO of Handspring, said, "While no company is immune to current economic conditions, we see continued sales growth in our business at this time. The growing acceptance of the Springboard expansion slot, now with 45 modules available, combined with the positive reception of our recently shipping Visor Edge product, gives us confidence in our continued product and market momentum."
