Sometimes, you don't need to buy a new Palm inorder to satisfy your lust of technology. It always boils down to how you badly need a specific hardware feature. The rest are modifiable through software patches and add-ons.
In my case, I have two Palms -
Tungsten T and
Tungsten C (figures that I haven't bought anything new within the last two years or so). For the past years, I've been switching from one to the other depending on what my needs are. We all know that one has the bluetooth with a smaller form factor and the other has the WiFi and the thumboard - each are unique on its own. Since I've moved here in Canada, I've been carrying the Tungsten T for its smaller form factor. Recently, I've switched back to the C since I need more built-in RAM, WiFi and a thumboard. With the switch, I've done some tweaks to let my Palm look more like an OS X machine.
Here's what I've installed:
Palm Revolt with the OS X skin,
Font Smoother with the Lucida Grande Bold 13 font,
IconsPlus with OS X icons,
TMP (to replace the built-in Datebook). Most of these are sharewares which you could try using before buying. This would be a great way of having a new Palm without buying one.
