The Palm Treo. Round two.
Today was the first time I left the house for a work day wjthout the laptop. It
was fine, sans an IM connection. In fact, I'm typing this on the train ride
home from an ssh session! But here's my gripes with the over hyped PalmOS and
it's applications included.
The PalmOS has no unified file browser. Each application appears to have
invented their own. This makes an interesting situation when downloading a PDF
file to the CF card, opening the Adobe Acrobat for PalmOS program only to see a
blank selection menu and no option to open the PDF I just downloaded. The same
thing with the included RealPlayer program. I can't listen to WFMU with their
low bandwidth mp3 stream because RealPlayer won't let me copy and paste a URI
into the open menu. Suck.
