Same dealio here. I'd switch all 7 cellphones at my company if this were possible. We've all been using palmOS for so many years that it's impossible to manually copy all of our notes attached to contacts, notes attached to calendar, notes attached to tasks, and the notes attached to whereever else we put them.
In fact, we're at the point now that we don't even care which hardware device we go to (iPhone, Pre, Droid, 7, etc.) as long as we can transfer all of our PIM data AND fully search for individuals words within those notes. The problem with the iPhone and the webOS Pre is that they're not "full-on text searchable" like palmOS and Blackberry.
Without notes and "full search" (I hesitate to use the word 'universal' because webOS uses that term and it's anything but...) we'll just keep on buying used Centro's, Treo's, and Pro's until someone turns their attention to the millions of potential customers in this predicament.
Palm sold more than 30,000,000 palmOS devices worldwide. If only 10% need this functionality, then 3 million customers isn't a horrible built-in market.
