It almost seems like "too little too late", but maybe that's pessimistic.

ATT sold them in the US years ago.  I had one, it worked really well as an SMS machine.  It had no voice feature.  Email was OK, but not great.  It did contacts pretty poorly, but it had a nice Instant Messenger client.  The killer was the lack of web browser.
