So here is was at the Apple Store in Rockingham Park NH and I saw the Palm Tungsten T on sale for $199. Now You can buy them for around $300 and maybe like $240 refurbished, but here was this brand new one for $199! So naturally I picked it up! I know that new devices are coming out soon, but this is still a pretty good device! Oh and because it was in NH, there was no tax!

The T2 has been out for a while and the T3 is coming out oct 1. But $199 is still a good price...

Yeah, the T2 screen is a lot nicer than the T, I am interested to see what the T3 is like.

$199 is a good price.

Anyone want one with the ultrathin keyboard, 2 cases and some screen protectors for $250? Mine's practically new and it comes with $130 of extras (kb is $70 after rebate, $20 for innopocket case, $30 for palm leather case and $10 for the screen protectors).

Email me if you're interested.

Actually I have gone in there before and seen some pretty good clearence stuff. Software, non-apple hardware. Incidentally, they also had the C on sale (don't know the price, and they were going to sell the T|T2 for like $319 I think.

I wanted an inexpensive solution and didn't want to pay $150 that Palm was asking for an m505, so for $50 more I got the T!

Now all I need is GPS!


Oh and some other bluetooth devices! And I was thinking of switching to verizon! Guess I'll have to go with GSM!

one more thing, what is the point of a virtual grafitti area if you have the slider? then you have to slide it open to see the rest of your nice screen, making the slider kind of useless don't you think? Now if it was the full screen that you could see (like on pocket PC), well!
