Very true, that is my mistake. I was thinking of the 700WX, not
PalmOS. To be honest, I am not familiar enough with PalmOS to say
what it can and cannot do. with any real confidence. Even still, I
just did a quick Google search for the features I listed for PalmOS
and it looks like they are all available, except for maybe full
YouTube support. It looks like PalmOS is stuck with m.youtube.com
with the iPhone guys.


And again, I love the iPhone as well, I just hate the hype around it.
When its displayed as something that it is clearly not, people get
confused, and subsequently ripped off.
