All of those are valid points from an engineering perspective, although many would argue that while NVFS has some issues it is still a step forward. But speed is a relative issue, and the user's perceived speed has only an indirect relationship to actual application speed.
But I don't think it is a good use of my programming resources to build application features that will only be available to a user who buys a used machine on eBay. From a business-model perspective, that's not viable. If I do the work just because I want to and to prove what a wiz I am, that's fine. But I would not encourage any new Palm user to start by getting a used machine with no warranty and suspect history. ____________________________________________ Lee Church www.mobitechsystems.com -----Original Message----- From: %%email.bounce%@ [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Luc Le Blanc Sent: Sunday, February 10, 2008 7:22 AM To: Palm Developer Forum Subject: RE: Is the T3 still relevant?

OTOH, the T3 had all features of the current TX except for wifi, and bosted the fastest CPU ever on a Palm, and no slow NVFS RAM. All in all it was a faster machine. It also had a built-in voice recorder, not found elsewhere. So someone looking for a TX might very well decide a cheaper T3 (on eBay say) does the job too. I was thinking to get a TX for its lesser weight than the T3, but with Palm not releasing newer models, the price dropped very little and I kept my T3 and replaced its battery.
