Engineer - Note that in the pdQ, the processor that runs the Palm apps and the one that runs the phone are two different processors. I feel that mixing the two is a serious mistake and should NEVER be done.

I assume that the reason you are leery of operating both off of one processor is that the reliability of the apps/OS isn't nearly as good as what is required for a phone. But isn't that what is being done in the MSM-4000? Or are they going to pack two very different processors onto the same silicon so that if one gets tied up in an endless loop the other runs fine?
