Question

I thought that Handspring was going to send out a press release about the new Visor's today. I've seen the new VisorPhone release, but nothing about the Prism and Platinum. Anybody heard anything about the new handhelds?

I was asking the same question myself. Handspring's probably going to announce the Prism and Platnum Oct. 19.

I reread the source articles, and the CNet article implied that the Prism and Platinum would be announced at the same time as the VisorPhone. But the ZDNet article clearly said that the VisorPhone would be released on Sept. 25, and the new Visors would be released on Oct. 19.

So I guess we wait a little longer.

...and I guess by "released" they meant "announced with cool pictures, but nowhere near available for order"

I wish they would take some pre-orders as I want the VISOR PRISM NOW!!!!!!!

The memory of the wait from Handspring for my Visor Dx is a memory I don't want to relive.

So does ANYONE have any links to super-secret pictures of the Prism and Platinum?

Question when?

Are the Prism and Platinum going to be available on Oct 19 or are they going to just be announced?

Why is it odd? It is still suppose to be secret. Handspring have yet to say officially that there will be a prism and a platinum.
