> a trend lately...
The trend is with PALM, not PIC. As far as I can remember, PIC has been following PALM et al whereever the path leads it.

Hmmm...that is to say, PIC will shortly cease to exist.

RE: Very Nice But?
I have a T3. I still turn heads. I watch DVDs and TV shows I've shrunk to fit on a 1GB SD card and they look pristine. I play all sorts of awesome-looking games (including Nintendo emulated classics, which is always a hit). I check my IMAP email account from anywhere via Bluetooth link to my cell phone. I listen to MP3 and OGG files (mostly podcasts, but some music too). I browse the internet via Opera Mini. In addition to the basic address book and calender features (love having it vibrate in my chest pocket to let me know of an appointment without some obnoxious alert).
All this on a device over 4 years old, and still the fastest Palm ever made. Go figure. Still, I'd like an upgrade. Something with a better OS, built-in wifi, and no slider. And support for SDHC. Without ditching any features already present on the T3.

Whether you approach it either from the perspective of an upgraded T3 or an upgraded TX, it ends up looking like the same device. Come on Palm; make it already!

RE: Very Nice But?
If this ends up being true, Apple is one step closer to "perfection". Here's hoping that February brings a truly open SDK as well.

Seriously:
RE: Very Nice But?
Price is at $200-$250 and watch 'em FLY off the shelves (assuming there would be any store shelves still stocked with Palm PDAs in 2008!)

RE: Very Nice But?
However, the core focus will always be Palm OS given the much larger number of users, developers and readers out there.
Whoa!!! How did this 6 year old sentence show up in this new thread? Must be a corruption in the database. :-| Hope it is an isoldated instance and doesn't cause sitewide problems.
Slightly OT
Ex-Palm CEO lands new gig
Posted by Ina Fried
Carl Yankowski, who piloted Palm during the peak of the PDA boom, was tapped Wednesday to head Ambient Devices, a company that embeds wireless data into everyday products.
The Ambient Umbrella glows when rain is in the forecast. Handy, but I imagine that the $125 gadget is lost as easily as any other rain deflector.

Yankowski, who was also president of Sony Electronics and CEO of Reebok in the 1990s, replaces David L. Rose, one of the company's co-founders, who is leaving "to pursue other interests."
Ambient's products include a $125 umbrella that lights up when rain is in the forecast, as well as displays that can show weather forecasts or sports scores.
The company was launched in 2001 to help commercialize technology developed at MIT's Media Lab, and the institution's Nicholas Negroponte is on Ambient's board of directors.
That was the same year, coincidentally, that Yankowski resigned at Palm, after the handheld maker had a brutal year, with huge losses spurred by a massive inventory glut. In 2004, he was named to lead Majesco, a video game publisher.
