Mine doesn't say anything (Edge)! The Visor Deluxe is made in Malaysia, as Toby said, but that is first I've heard of Handspring products being assembled in Mexico.

I have no idea where the Edge is made now.

My Deluxe is made in Mexico. It is a fairly new warranty replacement.

"Assembled in Mexico"

My Edge (when you pull out the cover to look at the Edge Connector) says Assembled in Mexico =)

My first Deluxe was made in Malasia, my screen broke and I got it replaced. The replacement one is made in Mexico.

The funny thing is that I compared the two units before I sent the damaged unit to Handspring.
The two units were both ice colored, and when I took the springboard dummy out and looked at the back of the unit I could see that the boards on the two units were slightly different. Electronic compnents had a different layout and such!!!

Also as the ice model is partly see through, you can see the green frame around the screen through the plastic. The newer unit had a darker color of green around the screen, and it also had what looks to be silver colored stripes runnig down along the green frame.
It actually looks cooler.

Mfg. Palm's

A major manufacturing operation for Palm's is in Guadalajera, Mexico. Although, this location is primarily Palm.
