„In fact, although we have had pundits who criticized the Palm devices and touted the technological superiority of WinCE devices, I still maintain that most of the time (i.e., 80% of the time), we don’t need all that sophistication in what we do with our PDA day in and day out. I recently tracked my own usage with my Palm, and I came very close to meeting the 80% rule (there were several applications that were used 80% of the time–4 basic applications occupied the big chunk of that block). So, keeping the core functionality easy to use and reliable, the Pilot 1000 definitely met this design philosophy.“http://www.gearbits.com/archives/ 2003_11.html#000359 - Cached
