Finally, a "Smart-PDA" from Apple?

[Archived in Entry, Pda Market]

Gary LaPointe on 2004/02/16:

  „It looks like Apple might be finally entering the PDA market! This is a good thing since Palm OS 6 doesn't plan to support the Macintosh. The odd part of this is that even though Macintosh has a small percentage of the computer market, many of the Palm OS people...“

Apple PDA Rumors and The PDA vs. The Laptop

  „Matt argued that while you can do many things with the current batch of PDAs out there, it's more or less "doing it with a PDA because you can" rather than "doing it with a PDA because it is better or easier". Web browsing is terrible, email is passable (but still limited and done by mainly über-geeks) and just about anything you can name as being "doable" on a PDA over a laptop is much more "make work" for the PDA than something a PDA can excel at and do better than a small, light, fast-waking, long-lasting wireless laptop (such as a 12" Powerbook, or what have you).“

Great PDA vs. Laptop Comments

  „Ubergeeks are also early adopters, and typically vocal, so I think the Palm OS licensees have to take things with a grain of salt. The masses look at technology quite a bit different, so although you and I may be screaming for a device with bluetooth, wi-fi, 800x600 screen, and Dolby surround sound, the average joe wants something much simpler, or cost effective and may not see the advantage of surround sound on a PDA.“

Macintosh OS X DOC Converters Review

  „On Mac OS 9 (based on Apple’s previous operating system going back to 1984), there are a few solutions to this issue, including the previous incarnation of MakeDoc. However, once I upgraded to Mac OS X (a Unix-based operating system that is new to all Macintosh users, though it is based on the older NeXT operating system), I was sorry to learn that I had to use the Classic environment to synchronize with Palm Desktop 2.6.3, and that my DOC converters were not too stable.“

Short overview article on Macromedia Contribute

  „In that case our project may include some training, job aids (cheat sheets, flash cards, etc.), and possibly a short-project submission to the student TST members to put together the project. In the final case, our role can be to assist in carefully identifying what the final outcome (the project "deliverable") should look like (again, what is "success"?). If the project is outside the skill set of the average faculty member, it is the perfect candidate for our help, but that doesn't mean the client won't be involved.“
