I am looking for an all in one PDA, minicomputer, phone in one. I saw the Nokia 9290 and thought, "sweet." Are there any other models by anyone else on the market similar or that have the same features as the 9290? I live in the US BTW.

I saw the European version of this phone and thought pretty much the same: "!#@$!@&%#@*$ Sweet!"
Then I waited and waited for it to come to US, but before it did I found the PPC Phone for $350 and got it. While I haven't played with the 9290, I've seen a dummy model and can say that I like it's approach even more than my phone. I like the folding aspect, especially since the screen's safe while using it as a phone (as opposed to mine)
Try this link to the 9210 (EC version of same phone) to really play with this fine piece of plastic. Prepare to drool:

I tried to convince a friend of mine to get this phone, but he just got the same as mine. Shouldn't have shown him the TV shows on it, I suppose.:p
There's also a really good article in the Economist (archives, now) that discusses the battle between Nokia (king) and Microsoft (wannabe-King) as the authors of the two big operating systems that newer phones run on.
