No more needs be said about Palm handhelds. As for the phone, pity no speaker-phone, and that you have to use a hands-free cable. Third party flip case with speaker and microphone should be standard, as for travel kit (need cradle to charge).

7.3Palm's handheld/mobile phone combo is generally well designed, but there are a few deficiencies that prevent it from being an outright winner.

Put simply, what is the compelling reason to pay ~$200 extra for an Eee with Windows XP? A Windows Eee won't come with any useful applications and you'll have to buy anti-virus software to boot. The truth about low cost computing is that nobody really cares whether the machine is running Windows or Linux as long as its cheap, its easy to use and it works.
