I have to agree on BitZip. 7-Zip blows it away. 7-zip will even extract MSIs! And it's open source and completely free. I used to use WinRAR exclusively, but 7-zip has replaced it as my preferred compression program.

While you're at it, could you take IE7 and IE8 also?

And I would say you're wrong about why corporations stick with IE 6. We're stuck on it, because we have internal apps that will only work on IE6 and the vendors of these apps won't update them.

Problem is new apps coming in the door are now requiring IE 7 or better, which is something we can't deplpy.

Sad part is, if companies forced vendors to write to web standards, most of them would not be in this mess now.

Needs a MicroSDHC slot. 8 GB is not enough. Other than that, very nice.
