For a long time I felt the same way.

However...

I won't cut off my nose to spite my face.

The only way I would ever buy an Apple PDA again would be if they came out
with something better, for my needs, than anythnig else available.

I certainly wouldn't wait for Apple to come out with some imaginary future
PDA. Especially now that they have announced they are not working on such a
product.
