The only question left to me is whether or not this was one of the devices that Rubenstein put on the chopping block or if it's actually going to come to market. __________________ To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater.

I'm just not too keen on this design. It may grow on me if there is some hook we're just not seeing yet.   12/08/2008, 12:59 AM   #9 (permalink) efudd Member   Join Date: Jul 2005 Posts: 700 Thanks: 0 Thanked 5 Times in 5 Posts livefaith posted about this type of phone way back on 7/16 here: http://discussion.treocentral.com/sh...39&postcount=3   12/08/2008, 01:01 AM   #10 (permalink) GearGoddess Member     Join Date: Aug 2002 Location: san francisco Posts: 200 Thanks: 15 Thanked 3 Times in 3 Posts i like the size of the screen & the fact that it looks like i could use this one-handed. not that thrilled with how thick it looks though. size/thickness reminds me of the treo 300. i also like how this has only one keyboard, unlike some of the sliders. __________________ My journey: PalmPilotPro->PalmPilotIIIx->Treo300->Treo600->Treo650->Treo755p->Pre   12/08/2008, 01:13 AM   #11 (permalink) berdinkerdickle Tazmorator     Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Treo|Central when the light below is green.
