The question: Will we ever see this kind of PocketPC/Phone again?
As in hx470x/X5xv again?

I still love the SD/CF slots, VGA screen (I will not consider a screen without 307K pixels), the lightning fast processor, the ability to hardware accel the movies (I know the new processors does it, but still), and a size just right. Will we ever see the darn near perfect PocketPC/Phone again?

*If the CF slot is substituted for the SDHC slots, I'd still consider it good

LOL, I can't answer your question, but this is far less of a rant than the thread at the other place

Sadly, this cost/size/capability factor does not seem to be marketable. I love my 4700, and have bought not one but two spares on eBay in case the first one dies. Hopefully I'm set for the next 20 years, beyond which I don't care because I'll be too presbyopic to use one of them. It was the pinnacle of PDA achievement, and will never be reached again - the world has moved on to devices which emphasize other features (i.e. phones) at the cost of screen size/quality or CPU quality.
