It is nice to see someone lauding Palm products after such a long time. I have an obsolete TX which I have to use sometimes because there is simply nothing better at the moment. In addition to things I have to use it for, I just love using my Palm! It is also very refreshing to have someone justify beauty and elegance in terms of both hardware and software, in eloquent terms that can be appreciated by everyone. I currently have an HTC TyTn II which promised a lot, but delivered a little. This is entirely down to Windows Mobile 6. Anyone who thinks that this is an acceptable operating system for a phone must be retarded. I am waiting for the iphone mk3. I like the 3g version, but lack of cut and paste, proper bluetooth support, truly crappy camera, no MMS and lack of voice dial are 'deal breakers' for me. Hopefully we'll get a new improved device out soon, and hopefully we'll hear some entertaining and well-informed views on it here! What a fabulous, well-informed and entirely accurate blog.

Im not into mobile phones and seeing as you started way back before anyone else had a phone, you're obviously very very into them and so know you're stuff. I don't really care about mobile phones but i did try to read your post. Some of it went in but not all but i respect you for showing us how intelligent you really are. If i loved something as much as you love your phones, then i'm sure i'd be able to speak about it in great detail too. Unfortunately, what i really want to like, hasn't been invented yet.
