Or a phone. Or an N-Gage-compatible system. Or a flashlight. Or a potato pealer.

I believe in good, specialized tools, not in equipment that tries to be umpteen different things, succeeding fairly in all of them. Gimme a good, separate digital camera that communicates with the 770 and I'm happy.
Good points.

I have a Treo 600 and, personally, like to carry as little stuff as possible. The idea of a device that can do a whole lot of different tasks atracts me. For real browsing I use a laptop, and for real pictures, a good camera.

If this device was meant only for browsing, it would not run Linux, which is probably it's strongest feature, IMHO.
