  1. No backlight on the Revo by |DaBuzz| · · Score: 2 · on Psion Revo and Palm Vx launched

    My biggest concern is the lack of a backlight on the Revo ... that and the $499 price tag.

    I love the idea of free Psion.net service tho ... 3Com is just MUGGING people at $24.99 for 100KB/month and $39.99 for 300KB/month and .20 cents per 1K above that. That's just SICK and they need some competition.

    I've written a little more about it at PDABuzz.com

  4. Not revolutionary by |DaBuzz| · · Score: 2 · on "Visor" from the Creators of the Palm

    Ok, I've been bagging on the Visor all morning (ZDNet, PDABuzz.com, etc.) so I'll just say that I'll be a bit let down *IF* the Visor ends up being what ZD says it will be. Handspring released statements like "groundbreaking PDA" and "revolutionary design" then said nothing and let the rumor and speculation fly. Now they give us a Palm clone.

    Honestly, I don't find any aspect of the Visor revolutionary or ground breaking.

    I just hope I'm missing something BIG here (very possible) and the Visor does live up (to an extent) to the hype that Handspring propagated through their self imposed silence.

    (Damn I'm ranting a lot today.)

  5. Dumbed down netBook? by |DaBuzz| · · Score: 1 · on New Psion Palmtop

    Psion announced their netBook for enterprise users a few weeks ago which has the EXACT size and weight dimensions as the Series 7. It's also running the same StrongARM processor as the Series 7 yet 90MHz faster. The netBook ships with 32MB while the Series 7 ships with 16MB.

    Could this simply be a dumbed down netBook model? Hrmmmm ....

    Even more useless PDA babble @ PDA Buzz

  6. BSD for SH4 ... sweet! by |DaBuzz| · · Score: 1 · on Wacky port of BSD to Dreamcast set top box

    Forget about the Dreamcast, what about Handheld PCs based on the SH4! The Compaq Aero 8000 comes to mind right away and many of the next generation CE machines will also run the SH4.

    Imagine being able to break free from Windows on your workstation, PDA, AND console game machine.

    How sweet it is.

  7. AOL has a point regarding security by |DaBuzz| · · Score: 2 · on ESR says Microsoft is right, for once

    While I completely agree that it's time for open instant messaging standards, AOL's security reasoning behind blocking MSN's messenger makes sense since MSN's messenger asks for your AOL screename and password.

    AOL has been trying for years to educate their 400 ba-zillion "newbies" to never ever give out their name and password to anyone, ever. Now Microsoft wants it. Should AOL now go against this policy and allow MSN to ask for user's names and passwords? I don't see the value in that.

    My .02, no change will be given.
