Re: Last major update of Bonsai with Palm OS support

I think there are a lot of folks in this boat that you and I are in!  HandEra was real close and couldn't quite pull it off and Palm was so close with the Tungsten family and then just went haywire!  I'm hopin g that you and I and others in the boat can chat for awhile and then paddle to shore where things are the most promising.  I stopped by the local AT&T store and they did not have a single Palm device.  Palm is dead to them ('course they don't have the Pre, yet...)

I and I'm sure many others are tired of carring a PDA and a cell phone!  But I can't find a smart cell phone that will do what my Moto/T3 combo will!  Esp considering the screen, graffiti input and software!

I Googled the "Sony Ericsson Xperia X1" and that is an impressive piece of hardware!  'Course its got that "Windows" inside.  Sooner or later I fear that I'll have Windows inside my handheld.  But not yet!

My other concern is even if I just upgrade my phone that I will no longer be able to tether my T3 to it!?!?!

I don't know what to do!

I haven't want to give up my 320x480 screen or would have already moved to a Palm phone.  I also don't want to give up graffiti!  Now Palm OS is dead and I'm stumped!
