Not currently. My camera converged with my phone already, and I'm still reeling. I love my teeny phone, and often travel with it and not the PDA. And I don't want to compromise screen or data entry space on a PDA to fill my need for mini-phone.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
It's part that "convergence" thing that the kids are into.
Also part of that "I'm sitting in a cafe/bar/laundromat/short-term holding cell posting to b.org, aifg" thing, from what I understand.

Which is kinda parta why the idea of the Tungsten C and WiFi is a bit appealing, though, more for e-mail than for b.org.
I can live with only sending e-mail at hotspots, since I can check it from my phone already.

It sounds like you need the tiny keyboard, then.

Need is such a strange word to apply to all this. It makes me feel guilty. Because I also need the massive memory of the T5, and the larger screen. I could go either way. But if I'm going to have it for three or four years (how weird), I want the one that's least likely to be obsolete as soon as UPS delivers it to my door (which is what happened with my Clies).

If I only had a brain...
I bought two used Palm Vs within six months. Not buying used Palms again; the digitizer seems to be one of the first things that goes.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

In the future, we will have evolved tiny little fingers for the tiny keyboards. Unless we have PDAs that can read minds by then. Or cyborg monkeys to do our wireless communicating for us.

Perhaps we could just look up-ish and say "Computer!" and then Majel Barrett would answer.

Not buying used Palms again
I've always bought my Palms on eBay, but I'm a Luddite who only has a Palm III. If the hospital staff hadn't dropped mine and smashed the screen, I'd be heading for two years on the one I had before the most recent.

I had to Imdb her to see what you were talking about. Damn, she's been doing the voice for Star Trek computers since 1973 (the animated series).
