Palm TX PDA - Mwave $249 + Shipping
Palm TX PDA - Amazon $266-$30 with Amazon CC signup
Palm TX PDA - Newegg $267 Shipped price dropped back to sale price

312 MHz Intel ARM processor
320x480 65K screen
Built in WiFi and Bluetooth
128MB Flash built in (upgrade with a 2GB SD card)

This doesn't have a built in camera, phone, fingerprint scanner, GPS, or giant "LASER." It is a nice small PDA (3.08" W x 4.76" H x .61" D x 5.25 ounces) with a nice color screen, decent main memory (flash so you don't lose data when the battery dies) that is easily upgraded and WiFi so you can surf at Starbucks without hauling around a five pound laptop.

If someone gets LINUX up and running on it then it starts looking a whole lot more fun and useful to me than a $250 PSP. Maybe the price will drop over time but I see a lot places listing these for $300 and while a 10% discount isn't exactly hot it is pretty warm for a new model PDA with a 320x480 screen, built in WiFi and a web browser.

Edited to reflect Other sources, Mwave pricing reflects shipping to Virginia YSCMV (your shipping costs may vary).

It can synch wireless. But be aware, I have had "smartheap" "MEM_BAD_POINTER" issues with this mode - it may be just my PC and something else causing this problem.

I have had the T/X for 3 months and am quite happy with it. My fourth PDA in 5 years - I kept upgrading.
