Nice article Tim- If you finish it they regret the CDMA only because CDMA isn't available everywhere yet. They also complain about the 40 hour standby time. Why is that? Isn't the PDQ available with the Thin Phone? Here is that part of the article:

Unfortunately, the wireless data services rely on Code
Division Multiple Access cellular service, which isn't
yet available in all locations. Also, battery life is only
40 hours, whereas some new cell phones can last
several days, and the device is huge -- twice as thick
as a PalmPilot. But with a good price likely (it's not
yet set, but I'd guess about $450 with cellular
activation), I am sure many early adopters will snap up
this cool new device.
