MM, you're wearing me out <gg> <<3G spectrum is of course the big barrier to entry and the big barrier to this market taking off. But it's only a matter of time. >> there is no compelling application that has to run on 3g, nothing that consumers are eager to get that can only run on 3g, so given the high costs of 3g, 2.5 is fine for as far as we can see. 3g is way, way off in the distance.... <<For instance, I love the idea of a Palm VII. >> palm just lowered the price for VII to below cost so they can get rid of all their warehouses full of them. Again, the economics are brutal on so much of this sexy stuff... talk all you want to about how great it is, I agree; but who is going to ever stay in business trying to sell it?? Palm and handspring are beating each other into Chapter 11 !
