overuse

[abnomar]

i have tealpaint and some games like beebop,chess and others intalled in my palm m130 and my friends and i use them a lot.
my question is can "over use" (like 3-4 hrs of tapping and dragging a day) kill my palm?

Yes and no.

No, 3-4 hours of use a day is not going to hurt anything. I log about this much use every day and have been doing so for the last year. No problems.

Yes, because a pda is just like anything else. It will wear out. Your screen and digitizer will wear out and your battery will quite holding a charge. But, I'm sure you bought your pda to use, not to look good on a desk somewere.

Don't worry about it. Just do what you want and someday you'll have a good reason to buy a new one. :)
