    Sigh. Just when I was convinced the Centro was the smartphone for me.


    Well, I'll just keep using my Tungsten E3 till it drops dead, and considering my Handspring Visor still works after all these years.....

    Okay software mod specialists everywhere, the race has officially begun to make the original Palm OS run on the Pre. Extra credit for anyone that gets Amiga Workbench 2.0 running on there in the background.

    He may have talked with apple, but apple can't even keep their pants on from all the cash in it, where as palm is assfucked without the pre.

    I loved PalmOS on my Handspring Visor and Sony Clie. I tried Win Mobile and found it baffling at least just fiddling with it in stores.


    Now I have an iPod touch and it feels very much like a successor to PalmOS to me. Now if only there was a clipboard and some easy ways to open up and change my notes on my PC like I did with Palm Desktop...

    You guys crack me up with your Pre praise. Who'd a thunk that you'd be so Palmtastic. I'd love to see how the handset does when it makes it to the market. But really, let's be a bit more realistic in the expectations we set for this thing.

    This list has some good candidates and Dean should have ranked a little higher on his God-meter. As much as I hate using the term, Gates and Jobs (and Woz) were the real mavericks. They brought personal computing to the masses and everything else (PDA's, cell phones, etc) ushered in right behind them. While these guys (and gal) today are doing their parts to take this even further, the field has already been plowed. I don't doubt they'll have their share of contributions and make their mark, I just don't see any of them reaching the same level that Bill and Steve have.

    The problem with the list is that there is only one guy on there who is listed as being considered for godhood who is genuinely out to better the lives of people everywhere over and over again.


    Laugh at the Segway all you want, but it's an amazing piece of technology that is designed to increase people's mobility. And his water purification plant... Just amazing what this man thinks of.
