If you had a Peek, other than the Peek 9 you lost your service over the weekend. Kind of a bummer, though the news of the permanent outage does arrive with a silver lining. Bottom line here, Peek switched providers and at the same time seems to have killed off all older devices. The good more »

There has never been all that much excitement over Peek devices. Sure, they offer email, SMS, and Twitter wherever you go without all those extra features in a smartphone, but they never really seemed to catch on.

Back in January, Peek, the e-mail and texting handheld device, was on sale for $299.95 complete with lifetime e-mail service for one day only. Right now, you can get a Peek with lifetime service for $399.99 at Costco. The offer runs out in 10 days on March 22, 2009. The device normally costs only $50.
