the question is : WHICH market is bigger in the moment: old palms or new ones.

I have serious doubts to buy a tungsten T3 because i have seen many units make a
very high frequency sounds with the display- this is something i do not wish to
have.
a palm making ugly sounds while using it.

instead i bought a little notebook. while i am waiting there will be a better
tungsten... and that the market has ENOUGH machines available. in the moment
it is very difficult to get machines because palm cannot produce enough.

Also IMO the price is still to high.

349 EURO it is in the moment (amazon.de)
