I've been thinking.. when I'm eating oranges, and peeling apart the slices, it's like a little callosotomy.. Anyhow, I think I might have found my next Cellphone -- the Treo 600. It's a PalmOS-based cellphone, with a keyboard, a builtin (crappy) camera that I don't care about, and the ability to run webbrowsers and ssh clients. This would be very handy -- I would love to be able to check my email from anywhere. It also has replacable ringtones. I might wait awhile to buy it though -- I've spent too much money on toys recently, and my current phone is doing okay. As part of due diligence, I've found a list of complaints about the device here.
- Poor pants attachment - My Timeport connects very nicely to my pants. The new phone might not. :(
- Screen hard to read in daylight - Timeport's screen is a simple LED, but is very easy to read... :(
- No omnipresent time display - Another downer. Probably fixable w/ software though.
- Small keyboard - Maybe not a big deal
- Bad camera - Ehh... don't plan on using it.
Perhaps, unless I find myself getting hold of a great deal of spare money soon that I don't decide to invest, by the time I get it the next model will be around that'll deal with these issues in some way. I probably should get an external USB harddrive for my laptop first anyhow. Hmm.
Back to work..
