Palm TX

In the What-Were-They-Thinking Department, Palm chose yesterday as the day to release their new handheld, the Palm TX. You didn’t hear about it? Neither did anybody else, because we were all paying attention to some other product announcements happening at the same time. Too bad that Palm buried the launch like that, because I really want them to do well and it’s a very nice little device. Cheaper than previous high-end models ($299 – the Tungsten T debuted at $499), with built-in WiFi. For specs, see Palm.com.

Update: I belatedly realized that the “Tungsten” brand name has been dropped – it’s simply the “Palm TX” now, thank you very much – so I updated the text of this post to reflect that.
