was too big and heavy, while a smaller device like a PDA could be more suitable for
enhancing user experience, even at the cost of display size and graphic resolution.
Future work is focused towards the implementation of dynamic adaptations to
different devices (PDAs and Ultra-Mobile PCs) and the provision of collaborative
features, allowing users to take notes on the client and to share their experience.
