 In O'Reilly - "HTML & XHTML The Definitive Guide", 5th edition.  It is
 mentioned as deprecated in the descripiton for the span tag but not in the
 usual spot - the title for that tag's section.  I suspect an editing
 error.
 
 Plus, I  would hate to lose Span - very handy for doing something special
 with a word or phrase in a sentence.
 
 I also like <u>, the underline tag, which is deprecated.  The <u> is so
 much simpler than the css text-decoration for random uses on a page.
