Switching. Again.
I'm dropping Palm and going back to the Pocket PC. I miss it too much. Before I place my excellent-condition Sony Clue UX50 with a 256MB Lexar Memory Stick on eBay (and all the nifty PC software I picked up along the way), anybody care to send me a serious offer or two?

Dude, would you sell this blog/site? I can offer you $200 for you to give me full control of the domain and hosting.
I'd turn it into a piano news blog (even though the domain doesn't match). Your site has a good google PR (PR7) so that would help me because I'd link from the site to my main website.
Alternatively I could pay you $50 per year if you'd put up a small (about 25-30 words) text advert.
please let me know what you think.

I just switched from my PocketPC back to my Palm AGAIN. Everytime I decide to give my PPC a second chance, I realize its harder to pull up address records, and notes (which i use constantly) as quickly as I can with the Palm. Also for some lame reason, my pocketpc seems to frequently loose screen alignment. I guess thats what i get for buying a used Pocketpc on ebay. :)

by the way, I notice you use an imbedded font. (I'm so observant.) I was wondering: why don't more people use them? Seems like the perfect way to personalise a site…I'm thinking about using an imbedded font on my site but I have trepidations because I've only seen this site and a few others. Does it cause problems? Slash only work on certain platforms/OSs?

I like my Palm III even though its ancient. It works for me. What else do I need from a PDA besides Addresses, Things to Do, Text Email, And a Date Book? Games, I use my PlayStation. Pictures, I use my Sony Digicam. And For Music? Nah, we already have MUZAK on all day long at work so…

Li, the only problem is it doesn't show in all browsers. Not all browsers support it. Some people think it's annoying, but like you said, I think it gives a personalized touch to any personal site. It's not too often you see anything original on the net these days.

There are a number of rumors about a UX50 replacement, and some sites have marked down the prive or gone “all sales final” on that model.
You might want to sell it quickly as a new version could be in the works.

I was using Windows CE back then on my HP Jordana 620LX. After that I got stuck to Palm for quite some time till I decided to get an IPAQ. It totaly crashed on me after 1 day. Can't hard reset. Exchanged it for a new one and I killed it in 3 days.
I'm back on Palm now with my m515. I've had it for more than a year and it has not crashed more than 20 times.
