Question Prism vs Treo?

Hello,

Now that the Prism production line finally came to an end I wonder if it makes sense to trade in my 4 month old Prism for a Treo 90.
Does anybody know if Handspring has a trade in policy on this?
I'll be in the Boston, MA area coming fall and could buy a Treo. It's cheaper in the US and the high Euro rate is attractive too. On the other hand it seems silly to buy another new Handspring PDA when the present one is still fairly new and in good working condition. It's just like new cars: whenever there's a new model released you're almost obliged to trade in the old one.
Anybody has suggestions on this?

Oh my yes! As long as your Prism is working well, I wouldn't bother with the Treo. The only "improvement" is 16meg of RAM as opposed to 8. With the addin of a Matchbook or other adapter, you can spring past that limitation all the way up to 256megs worth of CF. If there isn't anything you are particularly excited about concerning the Treo, I would wait for the next generation to arrive before "upgrading."
