Palm OS now available on your Nokia tablet

Yes, Palm OS Garnet will now work on your Nokia tablet, namely the N810, N800 and the N770. If you’re thinking that this is merely emulation software, you’re mistaken. Apparently, the move to position the Palm OS on other devices is actually a new strategy to revive the Palm operating system, as The Register […]

Palm Centro: Tiny step to get Palm back in the race?

The new Palm Centro looks like a hipper version of the Treo. With Palm losing market share in their business phones - and with consumer confidence dying with the announcement of the Foleo, Palm has decided to tap a new market - the youth.
The Centro is going to be offered at an insanely cheap subsidized […]

HTC Dopod 838 mini review

Was talking to Carlo from The Unwired and he dropped by my office toting the new online OEM favorite, the HTC Dopod 838. He posted a mini-review which I would like to link you guys over to.

Performance-wise, the Dopod 838 can get along pretty well if you don’t forget to manage your memory well. Yes, […]

Sony Ericsson M600i

What do you get when you cross a Treo with a K750i?
Well, nothing still. But the closest match comes in a surprising little package. The M600i was recently announced by Sony Ericsson as the new candybar replacement for the P-series smartphones.

The Bluetooth functionality of the M600i in turn ties in with its media capabilities, which […]

The Palm Treo 800p thing…

A few days ago, now infamous Slinky had the virtual beating of his life where he was flammed and eventually banned after posting bogus info on Palm’s alleged Treo 800p.
It took a while for people to figure it out - much faster for most because the whole thing looked too unsound to be true.
Take a […]

Nokia E61

I had a chance to play with the E61 (to be released sometime in March), which is Nokia’s mobile email solution PDA-phone. Actually, they could have just said that it’s their ace to beat the Blackberry, but they didn’t. Even if the form factor and weight all lead consumers to believe that this could very […]

Redesigning the Palm OS GUI

The past several years has put Palm (well, the company formerly known as pa1mOne, formerly known as Palm) on a comfortable pedestal because they have successfully claimed the rights to the easiest GUI (graphical user interface, or the stuff you see on screen) to figure out.

Palm used to hire a ‘tap guy’ - his job […]

Sharp W-Zero3

Last month, Gizmodo previewed one of the year’s more sexy PDA-phone combos available in the market. A month later, we still don’t have that much new information about the Sharp W-Zero3 (I always had a feeling that ‘W’ stood for Wing, as in Wing Zero. It’s the Japanese market after all).

Though similar to most combo […]

HTC Wizard review

Here’s an out of the box review of the HTC Wizard, one of the highly anticipated handhelds for 2006.

If you were to ask me what PDA/phone I will be getting for 2006 (that’s assuming I get a big, fat bonus from my job) I’d narrow it down to the Treo 700w if and when it […]

hx4700 128MB RAM upgrade

I used to do some work with the girls from The Gadgeteer. After being guest columnists in a magazine I helped produce the girls have gone even stronger in gadget reviews.
They recently reviewed the memory upgrade option for the iPAQ hx4700 upping the internal SDRAM to 128MB which is actually just “enough” to run […]
