My palm pilot died on me last week. It was a horrible crash. It just went into an endless cycle of fatal exceptions, even after doing a hard reset. I've had this device for, I don't know, maybe three years. I wrote most of the scenes for Mission: Dawn using this little machine. I would carry it with me everywhere I went, and I feel unorganized without it. What if I get a killer idea when I'm in the washroom and I have nowhere to write it down? I have to rely on my own memory now to keep track of my appointments. This is no good. I have been without a functioning palm pilot for over a week now and this just won't do. It has got to stop.
Palm has a new device called a LifeDrive. It's not a PDA (personal digital assistant), it's a mobile manager. What does that mean? I think it means it costs more and is slightly bigger than a PDA. It has a feature I want though, a built in voice memo recorder. That's for taking voice notes when I get my killer ideas while I'm driving in my car. I've been to Grand & Toy and I've been to The Source but have not yet seen a demo model. I went to Best Buy - they said their demo model was stolen. Stolen? I thought they had those things tied down with a steel cable and bolted to the display desk!
