I just read a similar article in (I think) the SF Chronicle. I'm with Alex on this one. Convergent devices are a great idea in theory, but rarely do they meet all our needs in execution.
Similarly, I have a T3 that I haven't switched on in a year (I don't even know if it still works really). I use my Razr for phoning and txting, and my MacBook Pro for everything else. I still haven't gotten a new Blackberry, but my email usage is low due to my laptop use.
There simply isn't a consumer need for a Palm-top type device like this. Palm isn't going to break any market booms with this thing. Either you need a laptop, or you don't. Most people who don't, get along fine with a Blackberry or simply a cell phone.
