IMHO, Apple shouldn't make a "simple" PDA: they could, maybe, more appropriately, make a new, "revolutionary" 3G (third generation) W-CDMA/UMTS videophone with integrated PDA capabilities (also considering that the new Treo 600, due in September, is still a "traditional" Palm OS PDA cellular phone) - maybe, also, based on a "pocket" version of OS X, who knows...

iVox...?
