PDQ made by qualcomm integrates a cdma phone with a palm pilot, you can
make calls and surf from the pilot, or push the keypad like a regular
phone.

but it is 7-800$ and is rather bulky...

though, I wonder if a minstrel would still work with it. even bulkier, but
then it would be just one device that could do enumerable things.

it does have a serial port for syncing so it should work. I didn't ask
when I was at the sprint store, as that would take money from them and
they might not answer correctly...
