Bux,

Re: Kyocera Smartphone

<< I wonder if Qualcomm's Mobile Station Processor 1000 (MSP1000™) will power the Palm side of this device? >>

I would guess that's possible as a companion processor. That would be cool.

Update here:

news.cnet.com

"Kyocera representatives said they expect the new phone, which will be priced by its wireless service providers, will sell for under $500"

I paid $400 for my Palm Vx about 6 months ago (same memory and OS as in the Kyocera) and another $100 for cables to use the Audiovox CDM9000 as a modem.

Slacker mentioned the Palm OS Handspring with GSM phone module. It is here:

cellular.co.za

GSMland will be using primarily the more powerful Symbian 32-bit EPOC OS and eventually the Palm OS will piggyback it, Symbian products are over a year away for us in CDMAland unfortunately.

This new Kyocera will waork for me.
