Talking Palm

It can remind him about meetings and it will tell him when his battery is getting low." I bet if you used this much, it would tell you how low the battery is -- frequently. That aside, it's amazing that IBM has been able to squeeze this onto a Palm.

    "Palm, record new to-do item."

    "Ready"

    "Remember not to refer to boss as 'dickhead' when talking to you. End recording."

    "Note saved."

    (later) *Bling,bling* "Reminder: Weekly jerkoff meeting with Dickhead in 10 minutes."

    "Um, I thought I told you we bumped that meeting up... Now please apologize to Mr. Cooper."
