hey, i'm planning on getting a new cell phone since mine is really really messed up, and i also am looking into a palm pilot, then i figured, why not get 2 in 1? Anyone here have any problems with those kinda combinations?

there is one for 199.99
and one for 599.99
i think i might go for the 199.99 since its 400 bucks cheaper, but what do you guys think?

The new Samsung i600 is incredible. Too bad the new Treo 600 isn't coming out for Verizon anytime soon. :(

Also "i think i might go for the 199.99 since its 400 bucks cheaper" -- is that how you do all your comparison shopping?

I guess you drive a Yugo, own a Hotpoint fridge, and live in a cardboard box in the ghetto, too?
 

The Trio600 is an excellent phone.

Finally did away with the useless stylus crap. Well, didn't do away with it, but the navigation buttons make it almost unneeded.

Treo is still junk because they still use the crappy TreoMail client app. POS software. Keyboard on the phone sucks too. Blackberry is where its at.

ok, gotcha, "palm" and that's it
well, no, i don't base my purchases on how much more cheaper something is, i just said that i was thinking, but after futher research the battery life on the 199.99 sucks a$$, 8 hours stand by, compared to the other's 240 hour stand by. pfffffffffft. gotta look for more now, thanks for the tip on the i600
