If the handheld stays with the teacher, does it have account security to keep each students work separate and secure?
No. There is no good (cheap, effective, and easy) way to partition Palm handhelds or Pocket PCs. So, the lesson here is that for the moment at least, lessons need to be such that looking at another students work is a positive thing, and not a negative. A lesson to copy spelling words into the handheld would not work well in a room where 5 students share one handheld. However, writing a creative short story using certain words may work. In fact, different classes could read and comment on the work of others.

The Docs To Go website has a helpful chart showing what features are available with each edition. The Standard edition offers Word and Excel, for about $29.99. The next version up, Premium, features PowerPoint among other things. However, at this time PowerPoint does not go to PAAM.
