"It may sound heretical for a gadget geek like myself to admit, but I never found the whole Personal Digital Assistant craze to be all that exciting. I know now, however, that it was I to blame rather than the devices. You see, when you have the social life of an unharvested Tasmanian Perigord Truffle, the ability to store hundreds of names and addresses in a portable electronic database just doesn’t make one yelp with excitement. And with the turn-of-the-century PDAs I could afford, reading electronic books on the dim black and white display was often more of a chore than a pleasure."
And so begins the life of another PDA Geek as he is engrossed in the ultimate coolness of the Pocket PC. (This is what I tell myself daily anyway) :lol:
