'The ACCOMPLI sports the standard cast of communication and organization features - voice calling, calendar (syncs with Outlook or other personal information management programs), contacts, SMS, web browser, and a splash of ring tones and games. Not so standard is an RF modem that enables you to connect to the Internet through a data cable and operate as you would from a PC... ' While the features look good on paper, the unit has little to be desired. This is the first full review of the Accompli 009 on the net. Thanks guys."

Yeah. I was thinking the guy was nuts since he seemed to both like it and hate it.

Yeah, that sort of thing never happens here on /. ;-)

Do plumbers carry around Palm Pilots with cellphones attached? No. They have those old 1993 Motorola pagers that cost $3.95 a month. So my advice is, stop trying to upgrade to the latest greatest toy and get to work.

Um, I do work. And my work doesn't involve crawling around flooded basements, displaying butt cleavage, or sticking my arms into shit-plugged toilets. To each their own, I guess, but I don't generally look up to plumbers for lifestyle advice.
