Comments on: What I Also Saw at PC Expo 2000 (Day Two)
Prelude: Ryan attended PC Expo on Wednesday and might file his own report. It was a pleasure to finally meet him in person.
I did not, it turns out, miss much from my very limited survey on Day One. The most important item -- which I did miss yesterday -- leads this story. The remainder are curious odds and ends of general appeal, which even PalmOS owners would find of interest.

Pocket PC sluggish? You've got to be kidding me!

RE: Pocket PC sluggish? You've got to be kidding me!
Are you are part of the Microsoft "grassroots" program to make all of our lives better through innovation? Your page has more ads for pocket PC's than Ron-co has "Julianne" fries.
Even your Logo shares space with the Pocket PC.
I'm sure your ad revenues have nothing to do with your opinion,,,and you are a completely unbiased party (it being your job and all)...but please...for the love of God (or L.Ron Hubbard) ...come down from that soap box before you hurt yourself ...
RE: Pocket PC sluggish? You've got to be kidding me!
The iPaq certainly isn't sluggish!
I listened to the Hawkins keynote on Tuesday, and I was totally disappointed. The way he talks, we aren't EVER going to see any new features or improvements added to the PalmOS...they aren't even going to increase the screen resolution! I'm selling my Visor on ebay if anyone is interested.
*as a footnote, let me say that anyone here that says the Pocket PC is a doomed product that no one wants to buy, and will go down in flames...well you obviously didn't go to PC Expo. I went yesterday and again today, all I can say is the PocketPC pavilion was packed to the gills with spectators. In fact, there were times when the PPC booths had larger crowds than the Handspring booth. I smell trouble for Palm coming!*
RE: Pocket PC sluggish? You've got to be kidding me!
We'll see how you like your iPaq and how pocketable it is with its expansion module. Good luck, but to prophesy doom for Palm is foolish (that can wait til next year, if nothing as changed!). mc

And Hawkins "be simple" speech helped nothing, in a over-flowing add-on for this and that show. Handspring with StrongArm and HIGH-BIT color and FLASH...that will save em. Springboard is a winner. Not simpleness. All sorts of trade-off's in PDA zones. MS memory sludge concepts, Palm machines on Dragonslowball chips. Handsprings with glued in OS. With the DRAM problem, heh. Best 'o luck. What matters it what it does for you. But 'sluggish'? I doooon't thiiiink so.

Sure it rips off the Palm 5 somewhat but they did it right....(except that it doesn't run the Palm OS)

Larger Screen
Are there even any rumours of a PalmOS device with a larger screen?
