Found old Handspring PDA
 

On vacation this week and spent this morning going through some old boxes I have been meaning to purge for awhile. Ran across one of my first sales aids from probably 15 years ago when I first started in outside sales. Still functions after fresh batteries! All my info is gone which is fine by me.
Holding it now feels weird compared to my iPhone but takes me back.

Now do I keep it for a paper weight?

haha, nice. palm pilots ... fun stuff

I still have my Palm Pilot IIIc - found it a couple months ago, still works. Problem is to synch it to a computer requires a serial port - other than my 15-year-old homebuilt Linux server that I have down in the basement (which I still use actually) I don't think I've seen a computer with a serial port in about 8 years.

They were cool in their time though.

oh mine. I remember I bought one when it first came out, over 15 years ago. Sounds is much better than most phone nowadays, if not all. Heavy as hell.

I just gave three or four away - I couldn't think of a single use for them; one was new int he box...

my wife was employee number 8 for handspring, she has a new in the box one somewhere in the house.
