Palm indeed has plans to implement MS Pocket PC in their smartphones, als 
alternative to the Palm OS. I have a Treo600 since 3 years and except the 
lack of the UMTS protocol it has everything I need (and will need for the 
next years). Palm & Eudora are my companions since they exist, and I'll 
prefer to buy a Mac before I switch to MS Outlook.
