Palm Pre

March 13, 2009 · Leave a Comment

So Sprint and Palm have yet to publicly announce a release day. I, however, found out from a source close to the product that it will definitely be released mid-May. No pricing information though. I think if it’s under $250 I will buy it. Any more than that I have a hard time justifying paying for it when I can get an iPhone for that. We’ll see what they do.

Digital Tv Switch

February 4, 2009 · 1 Comment

I think it is amazing (and not in a good way) that people have been told for 2 years now that on Feb. 17th of 2009 their tv will switch over to digital broadcast. Now, I’m not sure why, but a large amount of the population seems not to have heeded this warning and gotten the converter boxes (or new tvs) that they needed to comply with this change. So what does that mean? That means Congress will push back the date from analog to digital broadcast.

In my opinion, the government should move forward with the changes as planned. Once the change is made, people will be forced to take action and all will be right in the world. If the govt pushes back the switch, people will continue to drag their feet, not be proactive (or active at al) and will not get the things they need to be able to watch tv. Now, I don’t see the problem with watching less tv, but whatever. Once the change is forced, people will take the action they’ve had 2 years to take. End of story, done.
