It's not a Psion without the software
I had the Siena and Revo... and lots of dead machines bought cheap off eBay for fixing them up when the hardware failed. I got quite good at swapping all sorts of bits out when they went duff. The hardware was very good, despite the limited life-expectancy but what made the machines for me was the software - it was feature-packed, supporting all sorts of useful features, especially in the diary and contacts manager, that I have looked for but never seen since in PDAs or smartphones. Even simple things like reverse-lookups - perfectly executed on Psion with a quick hot-key and power options... but very rarely supported on any other devices. So for me the software is the key... and from the article it seems it's the one bit that Gemini is not offering - shame. To me, without the software, the prototype looks like an Android device with a keyboard strapped on... good luck but take a close look at RIM (Blackberry).
