I hope both Microsoft and Palm get it together. So far Smartphone 2002 devices are about as much vaporware as working Palm OS 5 units.

I wonder about the future of Pocket PC once Tablet PC is officially launched in November. You already have to pay $1000 for a new iPaq and a couple of accessories. If I could pay a little more for a smallish Tablet PC that runs full fledged Office XP instead of worrying about the limitations of Pocket Word, I think that would be an interesting dilemma. I know Microsoft says they are committed to the Pocket PC platform blah blah but what else are they going to say? Granted, a Tablet PC isn't much of an MP3 player, but neither is the current incarnation of WMP 8 for PPC for that matter. :wink:
