| Mossberg reviews the Kyocera Smartphone, a phone with a fully-functional, genuine Palm built in. The only serious problem seems to be that the screen is a bit narrower than a regular Palm. As he says, "all in all, however, the Kyocera Smartphone is the first really good PDA-equipped phone I've seen." |
| Personally, I think that I'd rather add a phone to my Palm (through a Visor module) rather than add a Palm to phone. |

| My Kyocera-2035a mobile phone has a very well layed out user interface. Granted it isn't the palm model, it's still a great phone! It even boasts SMS. I receive a 3-day weather notification and surf report every day :) The only down side I can think of is it supports HDML instead of WAP :( |
