CMDA and GSM?
I wonder will they release also an European version for our Networks!
Also will they release a PalmOS 5 version?
RE: CMDA and GSM?
The fact that the OS Licence ha been extended for Kyocera (and recent Samsung as well), bodes well for future development.
As for the 7135 in a European market ... I'd love to see this as GSM triband (world) phone. But contrary to popular FUD, CDMA is available outside of North America. Predominantly SE Asia (Japan, Korea, China), but also in Europe (UK, Germany, Poland, Ukraine, Romania ... approx 2.2M subscribers, and growing), and the south Pacific (Australia, and New Zealand). The Kyo 6035 is available in a lot of these places, so I imagine the 7135 will follow suit.
Check out http://www.cdg.org/world/region.asp?region=Europe%20-%20Russia for the European coverage.

Which carriers in, say, the UK and Germany are
providing CDMA service today? The link you provided
highlights those countries, but there seems to be
no further information available (search doesn't
return anything, clicking on country name doesn't
return anything...).

Russia has a deployed CDMA network. The others are approved, but not yet deployed.

solve all our data access problems. If it doesn't
bankrupt the carriers first ;-)
So basically, there isn't much of a CDMA network in
Europe yet that an owner of this device could count on.

From reading it, it looks like CDMA technologies have a good chance of taking over a lot of the major markets, and their cost advantage may eventually push aside GSM. Of course, that's just the writer's opinion.

The chipsets produced by Qualcomm are very cool. They are moving to the newer ARM cores (ARM7 -> ARM9? sorry, my notes from the 2002 BREW conference are at home), and incorporate a lot of very cool fuinctionality, including Bluetooth, and aGPS (assisted GPS - to address the USA E911 mandate, still requiers access to a cell tower, but just wait fo the slew of location based services about to arrive on cellphones :)).
As telcos move to 3G and 4G networks, we will see a convergence of CDMA and GSM. A world standard is required. At the moment we are at a point akin to the ethernet vs token ring type debates ... which will be the underlying bearer medium.

Size matters
RE: Size matters
I'm actually leaning more towards the i500 since it looks to be smaller than the 7135, but we'll see once we can put them next to each other.
