Oh dear, it's all gone really quite wrong for Palm.

Apr 1st 2007 3:11PM Mr Twain's got a point. And people said much the same thing when they released '1' in 2000- "doesn't everybody have all these tracks?" Nearly 30 million copies later.. (the best selling album this decade to date)

Apr 9th 2006 6:10AM Erm.. am I right in thinking that weblogs inc is now an AOL property. And am I right in thinking that AOL is 95% owned by Time Warner, who send cease and desists to little girls with Harry Potter fan sites? Hmm.

Nintendo prepping a DS update for the 16th? {Engadget}
Jan 13th 2006 6:07AM #20 Since when do they allow you to wear a suit to work in McDonalds? It's one thing not wanting to own something that looks crap because you don't want to look at it yourself, but when you're talking about games machines and other people seeing you playing with it.. If you want chicks to dig you, stop playing games consoles in public and start smoking. Smoking's cool.

Jan 12th 2006 11:16AM Timerider. Chill. If they do bring out a redesign you don't have to buy it. But it sounds like you'll want to buy it. But really you don't want to want to buy it. But you will.
I'd say that that's shallow, but then I've held back from buying a DS 'cause I hate the case and I've been waiting for a redesign. So up until now I haven't wanted to want to buy it. But I have.
Is that clear?
Are printed games magazines doomed? {Joystiq}
Jan 12th 2006 10:16AM 10&11. Good points, but improving display technology will eventually diminish the role paper plays in our lives. Current displays can't emulate the qualities that make paper so irreplacable today- you can't roll or crumple them up, they emit rather than absorb light, they're not disposable- but fortunes are being invested today in changing all that. It's pretty likely that by the time everyone else is ready to ditch their magazines (and newspapers and books), you'll be ready too.
For Me, A Disappointing Stevenote {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jan 11th 2006 10:05AM #13- well said.
Every keynote/announcement now disappoints when compared to the false rumours and wishlists- so much so that a line-up that would have been considered outstanding a couple of years ago generates little other than whinging from mac zealots (and commentators) among others.
Apple, I'm pretty sure, have their strategy in place for the Media Center market (if it turns out there is one), and also for the mobile market beyond iPod... They're also well aware of the frenzy that their launches are generating in the mainstream media, so they're scheduling them more than the previous twice a year. I think we'll see the precedent created by the nano and video stuff last year extended into '06..
