Well this is mostly speculation but I wonder if H/PC's aren't more simpatico/easier to be around because they aren't hyping up our body's electromagnetic field with their EMF. Not like the cell phone controversy and brain tumors and the like, but more of a what if or could it have some effect...sort of like a loud annoying noise might have on one's mood.
All I can say is for myself I find it much more comfortable to write longer and with more detail with my J720 than I ever do with my supersonic 2GHz intel I7 laptop... buzzing along figuratively so close.
It could just be the lack of annoying popups and notifications,etc Anyway, if my posts come across as puffed-up long-winded diatribes... as I'm pretty sure they do far too often...I lay the blame on the fine comfortable effect of the Jornada 720 and it's theoretical Positive VooDoo EMF effect...

Heh.
See, I think not being able to browse the web really helps -- I've typed a fair bit of stuff up in Pocket Word on my H/PCs, and the fact that I can't just tab away to check something drastically helps keep focus.
the machine being kinda slow also helps -- if I tab away to do something else on the device, I have to wait for it to
slowly paint on screen
Plus, even if I had a wifi or ethernet card, connecting to modern sites on the device is basically a no-go
(ignoring the lack of ability for an older browser to render modern web pages, the fact that nearly all sites are forcing TLS these days makes it VERY hard for an older device without recent software updates to use the web
).
As a result, you basically HAVE to stay on task, or else use something else for your source of distraction.
As for the noise vs a modern machine... my H/PCs have a rather noticeable buzz with the backlight on
(and the backlight basically MUST be on, since I'm rarely outside with the things
), so I kinda doubt that bit personally.
of course, the sound could also be a positive thing, the familiar buzz of the machine helping you stay focused
