Have to add my vote for the Qphone. I got a parent one for Xmas. As it would turn out, the other got a StarTac. You should see the pushing and shoving involved when it gets down to who gets the Qphone. It makes a shareholder proud ! There are few fates worse in that family than getting stuck with the StarTac. Why are they not making them anymore Qphones? I had to go to great lengths to one and the problem is only getting worse. Jeff Vayda

Do you know how the Q phone compares to the new StarTac phones (i.e., ST7760 and ST7790)? Are they pretty much equal in terms of performance? Also, I was psyched to get a pdQ but now I'm not sure. If you look at the website photos, it looks huge and bulky. I might prefer to go with my sleek Palm 5 and a tiny phone. The 2 benefits of the pdQ seem to be (1) dialing a number by tapping on it on the Palm screen, and (2) web and email access. But these may be weighed out by the disadvantages: (1) it's bulky, and (2) you can't read the screen while you're on the phone (I know there's a headset available, but who wants to look like a Home Shopping Channel salseman every time you make a call?) Thoughts?
