Can someone tell me the dimensions of the Prophet's LCD screen? I currently have an XDA IIs and to me, this is about the perfect size for a PDA. The Prophet obviously has a smaller screen but maybe I can live with it? My main usage for these devices is PDA 1st, and phone a very distant 2nd.
Or is there another device that I should look at? I've got to have quad band, EDGE and bluetooth. I'd prefer SDIO storage over mini-SD so I won't have to buy new cards, but it's not a deal breaker. A hardware keyboard is not a necessity as I found I hardly use the one on my IIs. Camera quality is not a concern for me either.

THE Prophet measures 108 x 58 x 18,1 mm.
It is a rather small device, but I think it has some next to perfect dimensions. yeah, the screen is rather small at 2,8" but in general it has worked out just flawless for me...
There is owever some issues on clockspeed, the cpu is rather slow, compared to an ordinary PDA, but I have not had any bad experiences yet or experienced any speed issues... but I do not run any navigation software either.
Living in Greenland there is not much need for it:)
I would definiel give it a "Thumbs up", but your choice should be balanced of against your needs in terms of screen size and processing power, because if you are running a lot of heavy apps and has a need for a larger screen it would not be a perfect match, but as I stated above, it does suit my needs and the size is just perfect as well.
It can actually be worn with a suit without looking bulky.

Well something next to perfect anyway... for longer business trips and for heavier work, I would not last long without my powerbook though, but guess we are all alike when it comes to that.
