both for replying to my question about IPODs and Androids.  It sounds
like neither will work to be fully functional with gnupg or pgp then. 
Perhaps I should get a small laptop computer.  I wonder if one of
those small driveless computers and a USB storage device would work. 
I need an inexpensive solution for a friend.in Europe.  Since Poland
and the Ukraine are in the European Union there shouldn't be any
problem using pgp for private communication among friends right? I
have been using pgp since the  90's as a hobby and believe if privacy
is not use it will be lost.  I used to chat with Julf at Anon penit fi
back then to but not with pgp.
