September 6th, 2007Apple (re) invents the PDA!

With the arrival of the ipod Touch, Apple seems to re-invent the PDA (remember?, the big thing you carried along with your phone).
It may be named ipod but has in fact more to do with a complete PDA with great AV functionalities. Do I like it? Certainly but personnally I can’t be carrying a phone + such kind of device, too heavy, too many cables.

Second point I wanted to address is how pissed of I’m with the price differences between europe & US. Even if the Euro is more than 30% more expensive than the Dollar, they still price their devices at higher prices in absolute! The differences reach 40% in some cases. That’s insane.
What do you think?

Quick note about Palm’s (good) decision to cancel the Foleo. I had named it the fooleo and most of the industry was against this device, just because it didn’t make sense.

Now there still is a big issue in the Message to Palm Customers, Partners and Developers. It’s stated that “Jeff Hawkins and I still believe that the market category defined by Foleo has enormous potential. “

Wrong again…There is no market for such kind of devices.

I’m so sorry again to see Palm defending strategic mistakes even when such a company cancels the product.

We’ll see in the future if they completely cancel the fooleo or not.
