The used market for TXs is still going strong, however, .. I replaced 
the touchscreen on mine with a *glass* touchscreen last year - works great!

Well, .. the assimilation has **NOT** been successful in my book! I, 
for one, do not allow Big Brother Google to index and store in 
permanent archive every email I send/receive or appointment I make. </rant>

About the closest one might get is sync'ing to your own server, .. 
but even that is not mainstream.

Oh well, .. a friend of mine is an Android developer, and I have him 
about half convinced to take on a Android <-> Zimbra connector.
