Palm handhelds have served as excellent MP3 players that use SD cards for
storage. Some of them, like the Treo, have the 'missing' functionality.
There's not much going for the iPhones other than style/hype. Same with the
iPods although I'll admit that what they did with the nano is worth a round
of applause. They actually created something unique.
