That's my point ... and the main reason I didn't get a smart phone.  If
I decided to change cell providers, my PDA becomes fairly useless.

Now, if we could get provider independent cell phones ... I would
probably dump my current phone & pda in favor of a smart phone in a
flash.

With number portability a reality, the possibility of changing cell
providers every year (to take advantage of the best deals) is very high.
I for one will be reviewing the various providers offers every time my
cell phone contract is up for renewal.

JMHO, of course :)
