One is a RIM - on the back it says Go American Your Wireless ISP.  It has 
a small keyboard and LCD screen.

The other is a Palm III organizer with no keyboard (you use a stylus but 
the person who gave it to us kept the stylus).  You can add 2MB RAM. 
Made by 3com.  It requires Windows 95 or NT to sync with a computer and 
has address book and mail applications and a 1998 CD Bonus Pack.  I don't 
have high hopes for these.
