I loved this era of tech. I had a Sony CLIÉ PEG-SJ22 and used it a ton for to-do lists and random notes.
I was surprised at how easy it was to learn Graffiti and how quick it was to use it. Not as fast as typing, but better than hunting and pecking on an on-screen keyboard with a stylus. I didn't like how the stylus felt on the screen when you wrote so I cut a little piece of a post-it note and put on the area where you'd do the Graffiti strokes.
I don't remember exactly how it worked, but I was able to save some web articles onto the device. When I was on a lunch break, I'd read through the articles on that little thing. It truly felt like living in the future.
I used a tool called Plucker for my Palm Vx. It could recursively download web pages and store as a single Palm database (PDB?) that was installed on the device and then the Plucker app could be used to read the pages.
I used it with Scrapbook in Firefox, to save a bunch of articles I wanted to read and export an index file that could then be used by Plucker to import those articles.
