News?
RE: News?
To get back on topic:
I have a tendency to get caught up in projects and to ignore eveything and everyone else in my life. I use Shadow Plan to organize my projects and I actually have a project called "Romance Wife." As I think of things that I should do in the relationship (gift ideas, date ideas, etc.), I add them to this project (assigning due dates and alarms on the Palm as needed). If I didn't use tools like this, our relationship would probably deteriorate to the point that we would just be room mates. However with the tools she feels like I'm an incredibly romantic and thoughtful guy. (As a disclaimer, I'm sure that she would be offended if she though that she was 'just another project' so I don't share my ethods with her.)
Thanks,
Ricky

RE: News?
I realize this isn't the most interesting article that PIC has published, but thought it would provide a good lead in into a discussion about how people use thier PDA's to communicate.
RE: News?
Getting back on topic, Ryan, what do you do to keep in touch with loved ones? Better get the ball rolling because the best I've got is that I use my IR to control the TV for them.

RE: News?
I think I've sold 1 of my old Palms, gave another to my mom (who never uses it), tried to give another to my girlfriend (who didn't want it, so still trying to sell it), and purposely kept my Pilot 1000 and PalmPilot Pro for historical interest purposes.
RE: News?
My boyfriend and I find Vindigo to be generally pretty helpful when we're looking for places to go and things to do, so that's one way my Palm helps my relationship. we also play games together on it (bejewelled is a lot easier with two people, believe it or not).
as for recycling old PDAs, they generally get sold to a friend or colleague for $50, and it's extra for any accessories that I don't want or need any more. I recently sold my old m505 to my best friend, but it's giving her trouble, so I'll probably give her (no charge) my old SJ30 after Sony fixes it. I've done the same thing with my Gameboys. don't know who's getting the GBA when the new model comes out, but i'm sure i'll find someone.

RE: News?
Bar none, the most useful piece of mobile technology in my life has been my cel phone's mini web browser. I can go to Hollywood.com, input the zip code for wherever I might be and pull up movie listings. I think I've seen 4x the number of films since I began using the browser to check showtimes. It always beats having to hunt down a paper or call information for the number of the cinema and then have to listen to the guy recite the times!

When she checks her ToDos she'll notice that there's a new #1 Priority Dated Today on her list: "Give Dan lots of smooches!"

Well, she DID write a poem for me once in memopad.
I don't think you understand the gravity of the situation. We're in space.

You can compare your answers to a series of questions with another Palm user via infrared beaming. Fun on a first date or just with somebody interesting sitting next to you on the bus!

I met love online
She'll deny it, but I doubt I'd be where I am today if I never gave it to her.
Note: I already had one imported from Japan, so getting a SECOND one before launch would just make me a greedy man.

#1 That's a warez site.
#2 The TX65 isn't real. It's an entry from someone to the CliePlanet contest.
#3 You've fallen in love with a piece of Vaporware. Seek professional help!

RE: i've fallen in love with the new sony TX65
so what? i wasn't downloading anything - i was searching for news on new sony clies and came across that site... it's just a picture - it's not illegal.
#2 The TX65 isn't real. It's an entry from someone to the CliePlanet contest.
okay, okay...
#3 You've fallen in love with a piece of Vaporware. Seek professional help!

Ummmm...
It appears to me that you are the "loser".
#1. If you approve of or participate in "warez", it is utterly stupid to post a link to a site. As soon as it is pointed out in public forums, it will be shut down. Rule #1 for warez people is NEVER EVER POST A LINK TO A WAREZ SITE.
#2. If you dissapprove of warez... which is most people here... this is totally inappropriate and unnacceptable. With today's copyright environment and the draconian power of the DMCA, it is foolish for a legitimate web site operator to even allow people to discuss such things.
I contend therefore that in either case, you are the loser.
