Comments on: Piloting Palm Book Review

If you have ever wondered how a block of wood Jeff Hawkins used to carry around in his pocket became the handhelds you know and love today, you should read Piloting Palm: The Inside Story of Palm, Handspring, and the Billion-Dollar Handheld Industry, a new book from people who know where the bodies are buried, figuratively speaking of course. Mike Cane has this review.

I think I ought to point out that if you click on the link to the book in Mike Cane's review, you'll be taken to Amazon's site where, if you buy the book, PIC gets a small percentage of what you pay. Mike himself doesn't get anything (besides our gratitude) so that probably didn't have any effect on his opinion of the book.

Let me chime in on the amazon link -- since this might have been an issue that caused Ed to put up the start of this thread.

When Ed formatted the review, I got to see it before it was posted. I saw the amazon link and could have objected -- but this is Ryan & Ed's site and they are not getting rich from it (who is on the Net?). If they want to include that link, I have no objection.

But it is as Ed stated: that PIC might have an affiliate link to the book on amazon had no influence on my review. I asked them if I could review it, asked Wiley to provide a reviewer's copy, read it, wrote the review (all in Graffiti, for those who like such trivia! -- with the excerpts OCRed by the QizCom Tech QuickLink Pen -- there's *my* plug!), got permission from Wiley for the extensive excerpts, and now it's posted.

If the formatting of this message is funky, it's because I'm at
the NYPL and the branch I'm at is using that piece of crap,
Netscape, which does not handle the Net well at all. (Far be
it from me to tout MS, but MSIE is the superior browser.)

I'm just about done reading this book using Palm Reader. It's a great book and when they're discussing technical details, it's pretty cool to look at your own device and see exactly what they're referring to. If you're really into your PalmOS device, this is a great read.

An example of the kind of inside info that this book provides is the story behind the famous Taxi Easter Egg, which was created on the day that Palm decided that their first device would be called the Palm Taxi. The name had to change for trademark issues, but the taxi easter egg remains.

eBook
dwarchbold @ 3/22/2002 1:11:54 PM #
Hmmm, sale price on Peanut Press is $20.95. Amazon lists the book for $19.57.

I never purchased an eBook from Peanut Press before, but I thought they would be a LOT cheaper than the actual printed book.

Looks like Amazon wins my money. Glad to "donate" some to PIC too! :)

Yes. That was the debate about ebooks a while back. Price of the ebook vs. hard copy.

My preference is towards the ebook, regardless of price, because of the convenience of not carrying around the "bulky" book along with my PDA.

There's pros and cons of both.

Missing Content in the eBook
I.M. Anonymous @ 3/22/2002 3:21:07 PM #
This may or may not matter to you, but if you get "Piloting Palm" in the eBook format, you'll miss out on some of the nice photographs that Pogue & Butter included in their book. They've got some great shots of the early days at Palm, including a nice pic of the balsa wood handheld that Jeff Hawkins carried around.

For those that would argue about file size getting too large with photos, remember that eBooks can now be stored on SD/MMC/MemorySticks, and they could always make two versions of the eBook available: one with full content, and one without.

It might be a minor item, but for a price that's identical to the hardcover, I'd at least expect the same content to be in both editions. For what it's worth, the eBook makes the following statement on "page" 6, "This title is also available in print as ISBN 0-471-08965-6. Some content that appears in the print edition of this book may not be available in this electronic edition."

Too bad you don't find that out until *after* you've purchased the eBook...

RE: Missing Content in the eBook
taxus @ 3/22/2002 6:31:43 PM #
Both FictionWise and Palm Digital Media/PeanutPress remove pictures from their eBooks, and that's a shame. The PalmReader format does allow pictures in PNG format, and that would not greatly add to the size of the eBook.

RE: eBook
taxus @ 3/22/2002 6:56:32 PM #
About the price: it depends on the ebook. Some are sold at hardcover price, while some are at paperback price. Often the ebook will first be sold at hardcover price, then at paperback price when the paperback version is released.

Don't forget that there are publishing costs, even for an ebook: it has to be reformated in the appropriate PDA formats.

RE: Missing Content in the eBook
taxus @ 3/22/2002 7:58:08 PM #
After writing my comment, I inquired by e-mail of Palm Digital Media (PeanutPress) about the lack of pictures in ebooks. I got this answer in less than 30 minutes:

"The decision on including pictures in the eBook version is made by the publisher. Some of the books that we sell include all of the pictures that were included in the print version, but other publishers choose not to include pictures or artwork. In some cases the publisher may not even have the rights to distribute electronic versions of the pictures. We always encourage publishers to include as many pictures as possible, and we have made it as easy as
possible for them to do so. In the future we expect more publishers to take advantage of this feature."

While it may be kind of fitting to read "Piloting Palm" on the very device that its written about, ebooks in general have a LONG way to go before being accepted by the general populace. A large part of that is the price. Face it folks, you're getting a good bit less for the same amount of money. Nothing solid, and less content.

If ebooks were half the price of a paperback then they'd be good value for the money, but until then they're playthings for people with too much money to spend in the first place.

The publishing industry needs follow the recording industry in getting their heads out of their asses and start producing something of value for money instead of simply looking at ways of making money for money's sake. And these people wonder why piracy is "rampant" in their industry. 8-(

RE: interesting questions
I.M. Anonymous @ 3/22/2002 12:12:25 PM #
The simple answer to why there is no Flash ROM in the Handspring Visor is that at the time of conception there was an extreme shortage of flash ROM. The flash ROM shortage was causing some delays in the production of Palms. This for a feature that a clear minority ever used (upgrading their Palm). So Handspring at one swoop managed to prevent any production delays and certainly not using any flash ROM gave Handspring a price advantage versus the Palm products (even with paying the license fee).

I would be interested in hearing the i705 story. From what I already know it is a gem:

- Getting sued by Lucas for codenaming it "Skywalker".
- Not renaming it to "i700" because the manual had already been printed before management figured out that people might associate "05" with color.
- Yankowski creating a company wide mandate to get it out on time after firing 1/4 of the company ( it ended up shipping 3 months later than his deadline -- 8 months later than orignal target date ).
- Delaying the release of the product past Christmas ( a consumer holiday ) because because it didn't do enterprise ( non-consumer related ) email as well as the competetors (?).
- Yankowski offending the design team by yelling at them ( not firing them, mind you ).

This story needs to be told!

Why can't they capitalize on the concept that they developed? Yes, it seems so simply that we all should over thought of it first, but we didn't. There thousands of patents out there that people think is not fair because they didn't think of it first or act first to ge the patent. I think Amazon does a great job with customer service and delivery, as well as merchadise selection.

"circuit court of appeals has overturned Amazon.com's preliminary injunction against Barnes & Noble, stating that Amazon.com's patent is likely to be found too obvious to deserve legal protection"

They were one of the Online risktakers (going totally virtual) and now that others are ready to play online they want Amazon to hand over the one-click buy patent for free so they can use it.

Palm's Dark Ages

I.M. Anonymous @ 3/22/2002 10:00:00 PM #
Finally, a book that shows what Palm was, Sony is and what Palm can be.

Whether you take what Andrea says as verbatim or not, it is probably a story that will come out closest to the truth for most of us here. The emotions shown by readers here are amazing with two distinctive wars going on: Palm vs Sony; Palm vs PPC.

I "used" to love Palm (the hardware); and despite some cool tricks on the PPC I still love the Palm software. I just got really frustrated with their hardware. Really, after the Palm V I cannot see what innovation, reliablity nor value has Palm brought into the hardware space with their offerings. They didn't do well for cultivating that relationship thing either when they were going after their supporters at one time insisting that websites like this remove the "Palm" name from their sites!

So, some truths have come out and of course, Yankowski not only damaged the morality of its employees, the Palm brandname and company but also very nearly its customers. In that period, Sony has taken up the mantle for the Palm OS and whether you like them or not, marketshare or no marketshare they carried the torch for Palm when Palm was trying to find their lightswitch.

I am waiting for Palm to come out of its dark ages and though they have done quite well financially, I am waiting to see if they can take back the leadership role when it comes to innovation. And until that time comes, readers, Sony deserves the respect here.

Like many of you, I am someone who has kept up with Palm for years, reading all of the daily websites (of which PIC is the best) etc., so I was afraid that I would know a lot of the stories in the book. Boy, was I wrong. The few stories I knew were fleshed out with much greater detail, and the book was full of great stories I had never heard before. Once I started, it was difficult to put this book down. Anyone who takes the time to read PIC is, by definition, someone who would love this book. Buy it; you'll love it.

Overly Hawkins-friendly?

Scott @ 3/23/2002 10:13:48 AM #
From what I've heard this book seems pretty Hawkins-friendly. I have a great deal of respect for him and his team, but I must admit I'm skeptical of them inventing Graffiti all on their own. After doing a good deal of research on this subject on the web over the last few months, my opinion of him has dropped significantly because of this.

The weird thing is he's doubting what he so called "invented", he's thinking about making only Treo with the only Keyboard version.

I think he got brain washed by some evil force, or maybe he's not that brilliant to start with.

Springboards rock
dwarchbold @ 3/23/2002 12:59:22 PM #
If Handspring releases a keyboard-only Treo, then that's because the market demands it. Rememeber, the Treo is competing more against the Blackberry than anything else (yes, even the i705 to a large extent).

It appears that the mono Treo is their "test market". If the keyboard version significantly outsells the graffiti one, it would be pretty clear which one they should target. Having one version of a model instead of two would no doubt lower their production costs.

Of course, if they both appear to be equally popular I'm sure we'll see a keyboard and graffiti version of the color Treo.
