By now I’m sure you all know the Palm Pre is finally out on the shelves. It’s been reported to have sold 100,000 units on the first weekend with sellouts at many locations. Not bad…not bad. Mere mortals have finally had a chance to get their hands on them and play with them. I too [...]

AT&T Must Be Afraid of the Palm Pre
April 24th, 2009 · 4 Comments · Business, Gadgets, Technology, Wireless, smartphones
Ha! You’ve gotta love it. I just read this article on Engadget. Based on this leak of an AT&T internal document I’d say AT&T execs are fearing the release of the Palm Pre. They put out this little memo to their peeps pretty much saying the iPhone is vastly superior to the Pre. That’s fine…I [...]

Why Palm and Apple Annoy Me
March 26th, 2008 · No Comments · Business, Business Practices, Gadgets
I’ve got the Palm Treo 755p that I use on Sprint’s network. Perhaps you’ve seen me write about it in a previous post here. Sprint’s network is nice and fast and I’ve had no problems with it. I’d love to stay on with them. I also love my Treo. I’ve got loads of apps on [...]
