Thank you! This means a lot to me. I collect Palm and Pocket PC handhelds, and remember how it seemed every independent developer had their own website with fun little creations on them and how easy it was to get software.
It's just not as much fun to use the devices without it being loaded with all sorts of fun programs.
I also recently scored a HP Laserjet 2200, which has an IrDA port on the front, which was a nice bonus for me in particular. I remember dreaming of being able to print from them and thinking how cool that would be. Funny how you only appreciate something when it's not possible.
Edit: I just realized this isn't about that Palm era, but yes, for the same reason I of course had to get a Palm Pre the second it came out. It was my first smartphone, and I remember it fondly.
