Best “PDA” I’ve used to date for web browsing. Given that the 2006 software is beta software, do you still reccomend updating? I’m torn between waiting for a final release and doing it now while the machine is new and I don’t have to back anything up. What are the disadvantages to upgrading right now?

They’re working on a portable communication and browsing device, and this new firmware does that far better than any Palm or Zaurus I have used yet (and I’ve used my fair share of PDAs). This isn’t a PDA, and that’s what I think a lot of people are having trouble remembering.

The idea isn’t to get one or the other. Get what you like. I’d recommend both ;)

No matter how many bells and whistles you give that device. I plan going with a Palm T|X soon again. The 770 is just a playtoy that I can not really use to sync my lotus notes stuff with, that i can use to sync other stuff from work such as sharepoint and other things. I just want a device that does the stuff it has to do and that’s the Palm T|X.
