Take a look at the Palm PR on the M500/505 on the Palm.com website. OS4.0 has SMS support, and the M50x's come bundled with AOL for Palm OS for access to AOL EM and IM, plus you can download Yahoo and Hotmail web based EM (and presumably IM) applications as well.

Samsung/Sprint announced Samsung's Palm OS based PDA/CDMA cell phone at the CTIA today [Courtesy of K. McNutt on the Qualcomm thread who beat me to it and posted it just as I found it]:

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 20, 2001--Wireless industry leaders, Samsung Telecommunications America (Samsung) and Sprint PCS (NYSE:PCS) today announced the companies' intentions to bring to market the technology to converge a wireless handset with the Palm-OS(R) in a compact, full-color-screen device. The SPH-I300, a wireless PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) phone, which will operate on the Sprint PCS network, has been developed in conjunction with Palm and is wholly compatible with all Palm-OS(R) based applications. The SPH-I300 is evidence of Samsung and Sprint PCS' commitment to providing consumers and businesses with innovative technology and cutting-edge features in both their wireless devices and services. The phone is expected to be available and operating via the Sprint PCS network around late summer, 2001.

We can't accuse the people at Palm of not working away like beavers at all the right kinds of things.
