The thing Doug is talking about is the AT&T 630.  Its release is actually
overdue, it was supposed to be out by now; apparently it is to be part
of a big multi-product announcement and some of the other things are
running late.  It does look pretty good (except for that wretched amber
phosphor -- white is supposed to be coming), and it is said that the price
will be sane too.
