“I hate having to change. I do not know a lot of people that
really enjoy it, but there are just certain aspects to change that
bug me. And when it comes to changing technologies, it is even more
of a headache, both in the short term and in the long term.

“When Palm first announced their new WebOS-based Pré, I
instantly wanted one. I have been a PalmOS user since the first
Palm Pilot replaced my Sharp Wizard as a PDA. OK, so there were a
few years of using a couple of paper based systems in there, but
when the Pilot came out, I was pretty much hooked. When my Treo650
died, I had two options. Move to the 700W or the Centro. Having
test driven a 700W for a week at a conference, I knew it was not
going to measure up to the load I put on my devices, so I made the
decision to go with the Centro, figuring I would upgrade to the
Pré shortly thereafter.”
