Are you digitally obese?
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yes, I am.
And unrepentantly so.
What's the what in PDA technology these days? Is convergence the theme of the market? Do you need a phone or a camera to be up to date?

ND's latest PDA is also a phone and a camera.
Or, his latest phone is also a camera and a PDA.
Or.... Well, you get the idea.

My phone is already a camera. I don't need my PDA to be either, but the one I have is getting flakey.

Play with ND's new one for a while and you might change your mind. It's pretty darn cool.

No, I've played with them before. And I have a Blackberry. Unless you can make my phone as small as my Ericsson T616, the camera anywhere near as good as my Kodak camera, plus rolling in a large screen with very few moving parts, I'm good.
Maybe next year.

Yeah, the Treo is a touch on the large size for a phone. Not too much so, but just a touch.

When I was in Chicago, in a pathetic display of geekery, I took out my Treo, my iPod and my digital camera, and placed them next to each other. They were all approximately the same size.

My phone is wee-er than my iPod, and it better stay that way. My digital camera is bigger, and I'm kinda sad about that, but I really like it, so I'll live.
So is the analysis of the market that convergence is it? Is it high level convergence? Now that Sony's out of the market, is it only Palm hardware on the Palm OS?

My digital camera is a bit of a big one, but I love the picture quality, even for a 2 Megapixel one. I was using a T616 for my phone, but now the Treo, which is smaller than the Sidekick I was also carrying.
My iPod is not on my person as often, and it's the bigger 30 GB model, not the slim 10 or 20GB.
