I loved the Palm Pilot, and later the Palm Treo, and then, after a period of hating change, I loved the Palm webOS devices too. No need to root, you had a root bash shell on your phone with zero jailbreak needed. Unfortunately, Palm took too long and Android and iOS replaced RIM’s Blackberry and Palm’s PalmOS. The world has been mired in a duopoly of the less-than-mediocre ever since...

I too was a big fan of the Treo line. Truly an excellent (and fun) phone. Would love to have a Palm Treo nowadays that could get good data service.

Yeah, unfortunately, the major carriers are determined to create more and more e-waste by forcing us onto newer devices.
