New Zire handheld released

Palm, Inc. announced the Zire handheld, a $99 light-weight handheld designed for the first-time purchaser. It’s the first major introduction to mainstream consumers at the sub-$100 price point. It weighs 3.8 ounces, has a polished white face and silver back, comes with a removable flip lid, and has a 160 x 160 monochrome display screen. One big change is that there are only two hardware buttons, for the Address Book and Date Book.
