"Nobody buys traditional handhelds anymore," said Sam Bhavnani, an analyst at research firm Current Analysis. "The entire market underwent a paradigm shift. The mass adoption of cell phones eliminated the need for basic PIM (personal information management) functionality from a Palm Pilot."

Any Analyst that uses the term Palm Pilot has no idea of anything in the market. Plus the fact that he is WRONG. How many Dell Axim x50's have been sold? Tons of them. In other words, I think the CNET article is a load of bunk.

I hate analysts
