EXPENSIVE $500 SAMSUNG I300 If you've ever juggled a Palm and a cell phone at the same time, you'll understand the appeal of the curvaceous i300. The Palm OS is built right in, so you can chat while using your appointment calendar (a hands-free set and voice recognition make this a snap).

It's nearly as light as and more user-friendly than the Accompli, but its CDMA-based cell phone works only...
...Harder to dismiss is the long-awaited m505 ($449) from Palm. Unlike my increasingly wimpy Vx, this baby offers a full-color display. But when I downloaded a few older color applications from the Net, they wouldn't run on the m505; apparently, its new operating system, Palm OS 4, didn't recognize them. Major points off for that...
