Ford vs Chevy. Mac vs PC. Coke vs Pepsi. All classic examples of product battles that have somehow turn into holy wars by the people that feel very passionate about their product. I’ll admit I’ve been in some of these battles as I’ve extolled the virtues of one platform over another. However, just recently I [...]

The rumor mill concerning the Palm Pre is going nuts right now. A few days ago there were two differing rumor opinions as to which “early” date the Pre would be launched. The first was Tax Day (April 15) and the other was May 17. As Tax Day rapidly approaches this seems a bit far-fetched. [...]

It’s been a while since the Palm Pre was announced at CES and I’m still buggin’ for it. I tire of looking around and seeing everyone with their fancy little iPhones and I’m using a phone that you’d see Sonny Crockett talking on back in the ’80s. I try not to read too much about [...]
