Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
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.
There are a couple of other licensees of Palm OS, but not any other major players.
There are rumors that PalmOne (the hardware company) is going to make Windows CE at least an option on some of their products.
There are also rumors that Palm Source (the software company) will be moving to a Linux-based kernel.

I did hear that. It made me dizzy.

Hmm. I think I'd have to kill myself if I got a WinCe device. But how are they? Still competing in PDA? Is the PDA market going to disappear into smartening other devices?
I lied about convergence. I just discovered he Tungsten T5 can also be used as a USB drive. I can't explain why I love that so.
Well, possibly because I just
lost
my 1GB flash drive.
After the iPod Photo came out, I played around with Photoshop and made up this:
iPod Ultimate.
There are also rumors going around about an Apple-branded cell phone.

Really? That seems like it isn't so, but I suspect it's just because the screen on the Treo is bigger.
Or at least looks bigger.

Well. . . that's not good.
