    On what grounds are you actually saying that the PalmOS version will not have touchscreen? It has always been PalmOS trademark and most of the zen of Palm was due to the smart touchscreen option. I can see the windows version being without touchscreen, since WM6 for smartphone does not support it. But I have an hard time imagine the PalmOS version without it.

    Are you making this stuff up?

    either the picture or the specs is wrong. why have the dialpad if there’s no touchscreen?

    Every site has sources they don’t name. It is just business.

    Nope, this won’t do it. Why waste time with this. The 750 should be where they spend their time. Apple will come out with a super-sub notebook and crush the Foleo. Do this to the 750 and succeed.

    - Stick with Windows Mobile and FINALLY come out with WM6 already
    - MiniUSB (aggrevating still having to carry around all these extra unnecessary cables).
    - Enhance screen resolution (HTC’s been doing it for years) and add multi-touch display
    - Increase battery life by double
    - Make Voice Command work really well with Bluetooth Headsets
    - Better applications – better audio player, better phone application (although it’s the best I’ve seen on WM devices, more base applications (e.g. Google maps, YouTube, etc.)
    - Support SDHC
