The Compuserve HPHAND Forum is the best place for information about the HP200LX. If I have a question or a problem, it's the first place I look for programs, documentation, or help. The libraries have nearly 800 programs, and dozens of messages are posted in the message session every day.
Subscribe to The Palmtop Paper, a Newsletter/Magazine. (Not free, but a value, and worth the fee). It is a great resource. I bought a year's back issues at the same time that I subscribed for the upcoming year. Each issue is full of advertisements, dealers you can call, reviews of add-on hardware, gossip, popular shareware and public domain programs, and announcements from HP. They also offer utility disks. It's a joy to read the paper; they're so enthusiastic. You can request more information by sending email to The Palmtop Paper. Or, you can contact:

Get a copy of the Educalc catalog. It's a good place to see what's available. It lists accessories, carrying cases, memory cards, modems, misc hardware, software, and more. They update the catalog several times a year. The latest copy has nearly two dozen pages of HP200LX products. If you have an HP200LX, you'll want to look at this catalog. When you're looking for something, call them, or drop by if you live near LA. I've found them to be very helpful.
