RE: whatsa handheld
Handheld devices are pocket-sized, either pen or keypad-centric, and are capable of synchronizing with desktop or laptop computers. Handheld devices are designed to access and manage data including office documents, multimedia, and games.
Handheld devices do not include telephony but may include wireless capabilities that enable Internet access and text communication. These devices feature evolved operating systems or application environments, such as Palm OS, Pocket PC, Windows CE, Handheld PC 2000, Linux or proprietary solutions and have the ability to download and run applications and store user data beyond their required PIM capabilities.
Basically, it looks like that means everything but smartphones
RE: whatsa handheld
Lots more reason behind the numbers me thinks
A very kind comment. On the other hand maybe if PalmOne would put out more hardware comparable to HP's, they might regain some of the mid to high end market. Let's hope PalmOne doesn't get distracted by strong sales into the US market of featureless plasticy crap, when their closest competitor is the likes of HP. It's embarrassing to see PalmOne boast about Zire numbers. Just take the profits meekly with some class, and sink them back into R&D to bring the next Treo and Tungsten products out and soundly answer HP, Dell, Motorola, Sony-Ericsson. And perhaps quality control could use a tweak.

"Whatsa handheld?": too bad Apple didn't register the mini iPod as a handheld.

My wife has to sell a lot of candles (www.ccandles.com) to buy her new Palm.
