So Handspring's poised to announce the Treo line on Monday. One of the devices has a build-in mini-keyboard to compliment the cellphone and internet capabilities of the device.

The color version won't come out for another couple months or so after the first two, but it just might be enough to convince me to rethink my Palm V, especially if they do go with Cingular in the bay area, so i could just tack it on as another phone on my existing account.

All this, of course, is contingent on my still having a job. (okay, to ease the melodrama, they'll be announcing staffing changes in mid-November, and it probably won't affect me or my group, but still...)
