It seems that PalmOne has been compared to Apple many times. I am not sure that things will turn out the same way, though. For one thing, PalmOne has both name recognition (Palm) and a major retail presence. But the biggest thing PalmOne has on its side right now is pricing. Although Dell has tried to keep its prices low, they still haven't been able to get down to the prices PalmOne has.
Compare the Dell�s with similar featured PalmOne machines and you will see that they compare quite favourably.

Toshiba e400 at 199$ as well kicks the pants of a Tungsten E.

Off course you dont have a PPC that costs 80$ but thats becouse the minimum PPC spec these days is still higher level then a mid level PalmOS machine.
