RE: Palm OS

Marco,

I'm not 100% familiar with the current offerings from Palm, Sony, etc.,
but this is my take on it:

If you want a phone-style keyboard, it's quite likely you'll only find
the phone/Palm combos.  And if you're going that route, you may as well
get a real keyboard and get a Handspring Treo.  You should be able to
pick up a used Treo300 for a song since the Treo600 was just released.
(no one says you have to activate it for phone usage)  The 600, which I
just received last week, is very nice.

Or, I suppose, you can opt for any other Palm model and add an external
QWERTY keyboard to it.  I used a Palm IIIx + Palm/Targus external
keyboard for some time before moving to the Treo offerings.

Hi list, I'm looking for a palm:

O/S:         palm/OS
Keyboard:    Hand phone like (12/16 large keys)
Connections: USB (no wireless, gsm...)
Price:       <500$ 

A key future is robustness.


Any suggestion is welcome (vendors too..)

Marco
