palmOne LifeDrive mobile manager
My
new Sony PSP might be
cool, but it's mostly impractical for me, since I'm not into games. Instead, I'm
lusting after palmOne's new LifeDrive
mobile manager. I was
happy with my Tungsten T3, so much that even when the T5 came out, the two were
so similar I didn't give it a second thought.
Then comes
LifeDrive, a new Palm series with a new name. What sets it apart from all
previous models is a 4GB hard disk, a first in a PDA. Then there are the
built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, another first for palmOne. These aren't fancy
features, but practical additions. The LifeDrive can automatically grab photos
from SD cards and transfer them to its hard disk. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi will allow
wireless access to the web, e-mail and messaging. What they add up to is a truly
mobile device for the individual on-the-go, a viable alternative to carrying
around a
notebook.I'm
getting a LifeDrive as soon as I can find one here in Hong Kong. In fact, I'm so
psyched about it that I've decided to devote a page to it, where I'll be adding
relevant content and links. I call it simply the
LifeDrive
