Okay, I’ll take time later to edit and come back on Apples announces yesterday morning. Meanwhile, here is a 60 seconds version thanks to Veronica Belmont from Mahalo.
So, last week at leweb3, we demonstrated our beta version of Webwag iPhone to many partners, visitors and journalists.
The feedback has really been extremely good, outlining a cool intuitive user interface along with a very lightweight product.
Here are a few videos shot at leweb3 on the topic with more to come (FR).
Go to the original blog (Accessoweb & Tapahont) to get exclusive invites to this beta!
Very cool & rare video of Steve Jobs & Bill Gates discussing together about many topics.

Ok, get ready to hit me but I have to say that Palm, Palmsource have really lost what made their success in the end of the nineties.
A bit of background: I’ve been a Pilot user (remember?) since 95 or 96. At this time I abandonned for ever any paper agenda or phonebook. Since then I’ve used Palm devices until 2003 (if I remember well). For those that don’t know me this means I’ve had around a dozen of these beasts, finishing with the memorable Treo 600.Well, anyway, enough of me, now on the Fooleo, oops, the Foleo, from Palm, I’m more than pissed of that what I consider the best mobile platform (Palm OS) with the best brand (Palm), has just f*cked up this much!
So here it begins:
So the Foleo is a big fat pda with a keyboard, that only lasts 5 hours (latest sony subnotebooks hold a 7 to 8 hours). It works on a (certainly closed) Linux flavor (no Palm OS, no Windows (or even Mac OS ;)) and Syncs with your smartphone… Wow, what a feature!
Ok, it has one asset: $500 only. Not sure this will be enough becaus franckly, who will carry a sub notebook that is not a notebook, a big pdaphone that is not a phone…
Palm and Palmsource (now Access) have really lost completely a battle they could have played a significant role in.
Instead of making this kind of devices, concentrate on the core products:
Make a modern Treo, slim, full featured (hint: have a look at the Samsung SGH-i600, or HTC S620 (I have and really enjoy both), put a rock solid version of Palm OS on it and you will get the market share you deserve!
