Palm Pre SPRINT :: I still love it :: Update!
I am still in love with my Palm Pre, I just installed the Classic APP from the SPRINT APP catalog that enables one to use legacy Palm apps on the Pre. I will be testing pseudo-RDP with home brew’s RemoteWin (they couldn’t call it RDP because it is not using the RDP) – SPRINT service has been pretty good so far, of course I want more than the 900Kbps combined that I get when running web based speed tests off the device, but still good!
I went up into the mountains of Pa. lst week and it was raining pretty hard, low cloud cover, I lost my SPRINT GPS navigation, I couldn’t be “located” – which is good to know if I ever need to fall off the radar; However, the actual cell service never left my side (shifted at random between 1x, EV, R, etc.) and I was able to make/receive calls the entire time.
Plus, that vanity mirror sure comes in handy!

It is reported that on September 24th, 2009 Premium Apps will be made available in the Palm “App Catalog” – this excites me to no end. Of course this announcement comes amid controversy of Palm dumping Windows Mobile in favor of the Linux-based webOS platform – a strategy I whole-heartedly favor. Linux can be very stable, I have servers More >

It was not an easy decision, T-Mobile held me hostage for nearly 9 years and making a move was a very emotional and personal journey. The hours wasted on TMo’s dropped calls alone was enough to make a grown woman cry.
My T-Mobile contract expired in July and it took me this long to make the More >

It is important to understand that the way technology is distributed today, most manufacturer/distributors are unwilling to allow an effective demo period in order to ensure the technology you are buying is a complete and rational solution for your needs. In fact, you can’t get a demo without signing a P.O. (Purchase Order) which means, More >
