Why would anyone think Palm would move the date up? Cobalt was supposed to be here and usable in 2004, and they've been trying to do the Linux-based thing since 2005, delaying the arrival date each year. Even if they magically said, "Big surprise, guys! It will be done and shipping by July!" would you believe them?
Apple's iPhone is nice - still not one-handed and poor synch of PIM stuff WM5 and WM6 are pathetic. I went from a Treo 650 to an 8525 and it takes two hands and four times the strokes to enter a calendar item. No one-handed operation even for email or SMS. Sadly, Garnet is, IMHO, WAY ahead of WM6 for phones or PIMs. I already have a laptop and need a one-handed device for airports and the like. The only reason I still have the 8525 is that it's UMTS and works in Japan. A UMTS 750p would get me in a heartbeat.
