Same thing happened to me, too (sob!). Maybe there should be 
support groups for people who experiences Palm cracked screen.

I am intensely looking at Nokia N900 right now. Seems to be the 
only phone with Linux OS (not just having Linux kernel fork) out 
in the market (well, OpenMoko too, but it doesn't seem to make 
it far in the market).

It has already been diverging. They didn't merge nor maintain 
their code in Linux kernel development, so it was kicked out. 
And obviously all the application space is entirely different 
compare to Linux.
