The only thing I could recommend that I know meets all of the above
requirements is another Palm phone, such as the Treo 600 or 650. In
theory, such an upgrade would also allow you to easily transfer your
contacts and schedule over, since both phones use Palm desktop. And,
your internet experience will improve, as the Treo line uses the Vision
network instead of the old, slower wireless web network that the 6035
operates on.

The Treo 600 is out now, but people are expecting the 650 to come out
within the next couple of weeks at the same price as the 600 is now.

The bad news: just like when the 6035 came out, The 600 and 650 are
pricey: $449 for new subscribers and people renewing their contract, and
$599 for current subscribers in a contract.
