I too am anxious to see the T3, but frankly I hope it's not BT but WIFI (I think BT is already set). I don't see the value in BT, at least here in the states. BT-enabled phones are not that available...WIFI (for me) would be very useful...BT totally unuseful. But, that's just my situation.

I too find Web work with a PDA a somewhat silly exercise, but pulling email and IM would be nice to have.

Even though the T3 appears to be BT-only, have watched with great interest the couple of SD-WIFI cards about to come on the market, albeit for PocketPC at first (SanDisk's SD-WIFI is supposed to come out for PalmOS in the fall). That would solve my issue, but would tag $150-160 on top of the $400+ for the T3. Ouch.

Bluetooth appears more the wishes of developers than the wants of users, at least here in the states.

Cheers,
