Yes, one incompatibility is that the Zire 72 likes to send you
sysNotifyDisplayChangeEvent notifications that you didn't request
even when your app is not running and sometimes claim (using
launch flags) that it's a subcall when actually it's not a subcall
since you haven't even gotten the sysAppLaunchCmdNormalLaunch
launch code yet. But only after you launch your app the first
time. Or at least that was my experience.

Also, the really obvious thing is that the Zire 72 is a 320x320
screen, and the TH55 is a 320x480 screen. As such, the TH55
will use the Sony style of screen-resizing, so it will give you
a chance to test your Sony-style screen-resizing code, which is
of course different than Palm's screen-resizing stuff...

Beware of the Sony, Sony has plans to discontinue PDA sales in the USA.
