Feeble
Flame away, Visor lovers--the 5 of you left will no doubt label me a "troll." Just realize that you're making a pathetic attempt to legitimize a product whose time is now going...

- but waiting on the Treos before cast Handspring aside.
Why the doom-sayers?
Now, about your complaints.
1) No Flash ROM. A debatable issue. For me, I;m about ready to upgrade to something newer when the next OS comes out, and I appreciate the cost savings of cheaper ROM. As I said, OS 4 has nothing to offer us Handspring 3.5.2H users--we already had all that.
2) Decaying SB technology? Huh? Back up your claims, buddy. Last I checked, there are still more springboards in development. In fact, there is another article today showing a new Memplug springboard.
3) Lousy form factor. Well, get the Edge then! Imagine how much springboards would cost if they had to fit in an even tighter form. Micro-technology is not cheap. My Platinum fits in my pocket.
Handspring is no way near to dying. They are doing just fine. Check out the talk on the upcoming Treo series.

RE: Why the doom-sayers?
Um, they are now using the springboard to add CF, MemoryStick, SD etc. Springboard was supposed to be a primary form of expansion (i.e. Palm, Sony and everyone jumping on the springboard). These developers are now forced to branch out. Handspring just released 2 units post Palm M505 and Clie N610 and 710 without color. Dawkins is falling on his ass and is going to take Handspring down to a monochrome, non flash expansion death.
