I wonder if this means the flip lid actually attaches to the same slot that the
backpack springboard adapter does...

The silver one actually looks less appealing in these pictures. There seems to be some sort of rubber edging. I liked the silver better in the other pictures, but now I think I'd go with a blue if were getting one. Also the red doesn't look nearly as bad as the first red picture.

Ah, a man after my own heart! That's exactly the reason why I'm rather pumped about the Edge. I was a Jornada owner, and frankly it was a trend setting design. It offered the sex appeal of the Palm V, with world class durability and rugged good looks. The Edge is the closest thing I've seen so far that matches, and perhaps even beats this category.

Needless to say, I'll take one!

I like it, but I think I'm too spoiled by color (even at 160x160), and will probably have to wait until they come out with an edge with a color screen...of course, this won't keep me from heading over to Best Buy/CompUSA/Fry's after work on Monday to see if I can get my hands on a demo unit.
