Is the Toshiba e800/e805 dead?

[rpommier]

I have a 2215 right now and am seeking a new PDA in light of HP's mis-steps.

I can't find them anywhere in my area, San Antonio, TX. Is it a discontinued device? Is it avisable to purchase one? Also, are you guys pleased with Toshiba support?

Thanks,

I don't know a lot of PDA's, sinds i'm looking out to by my first one. But i don't expect the e8x0 line to die out ( dispite the rumor ).

Why? A bit of reading finds out that 15 september, the e830 will be released. So, Toshina stays in the PDA bussiness. Maybe there are cutting back on e800's in preparation for the e830.

The fact that Toshiba did release a upgrade for pocket pc os 2003 -> 2003 SE puts them a step above HP there support. I officialy scratched the 4700/4705 fro my list for 2 reasons ( touchpad & there refusal with bad excusses to upgrade current PDA holders there PDA's to SE ( even when some models are very resent - even more when you know that they upgraded people there "old"PDA's to SE on some conventions )).

As a 2210 owner and a recient E800 buyer all I can say is WOW.

I still love the design of the 2210 but the E800 really kicks it with VGA plus you can upgrade it to WM2003SE or downgrade back to WM2003FE it if thats your preference.

Blows a lot of what HP has to offer out of the water plus you should be able to get it cheaper now.
