iPod vs. Newton
%PM, %b %America/Chicago %2009, %R TechnologyContinuing my series of reposts of mailings that I find interesting about the future of the newton from the NewtonTalk list, here's one from Carlos Santiago. I've added some comments and personal views in code formatCarlo's Post:I was prompted by the 2010 timeframe barrier I'd heard about but I made the switch after v2.0 of the system software which had abilities much better in regards to email than

Redefining the Newton
%AM, %b %America/Chicago %2009, %R TechnologyWell, along with the Y2K10 issues, there's been a lot of discussion about redefining the Newton. I came across this post by Michael, and I have to say I agree with a lof of his comments. This is very interesting because this is exactly what I have been thinking for a while.I have long thought, the future of the Newton was in becoming a series of enhancements and applications to assist a chosen platform

Television Tuesdays: Burn Notice
%AM, %b %America/Chicago %2009, %R Entertainment, TelevisionI could have sworn that I wrote about this before...but just in case I haven't, here's Burn Notice. Burn Notice airs on USA, and it's available for Free on Hulu. The story is about a CIA agent who's essentially given the pink slip (fired, made rendandant, call it what you like), but he does not know why.If he were just fired, that would be one thing, but all of his assets and bank accounts are frozen,

Apple Newton: Who killed it?
%AM, %b %America/Chicago %2009, %R TechnologyAlong with the Y2K10 bug I saw a lot of people playing the blame game concerning the cancellation of the Newton platform, and thus leaving this Y2K10 time bomb unfixed. People are quick to blame Steve Jobs because the Newton was not his creation. Valerio Mitritsakis has a great answer to the steve-blame (and I agree with it):A bit off topic here, still I've had a thought I want to share with

Video Game Fridays: Super Mario Land 2 (GB)
%AM, %b %America/Chicago %2009, %R Entertainment, VideoGamesSuper Mario Land 2 was a departure from a regular mario game for me. I had not played Super Mario Bros. 3 on the NES so I was not familiar with the platform/RPGish element that Nintendo already had for the Mario series.I borrowed this game from one of my friends and I was immersed in the world! This game was frikkin' awesome! I think it's one of the few games that made me space out and really visualize

Newton and the 2010 Bug: What it is
%AM, %b %America/Chicago %2009, %R TechnologyWell, the NewtonTalk list has been buzzing lately about the Y2K10 bug that is going to plague Newtons come next year. So what is it? It's similar to the Y2K bug (or oversight depending how you look at it) that was a headache on our computers not so long ago.Here is an explanation from Andrei:The basic issue is that the time calculations that deal with time containing seconds work with integers, and

Πόσα λεφτά χρειαζόμαστε;
%AM, %b %America/Chicago %2009, %R #foveros, Δουλειά, Ελληνικά, Οικογένεια, Σκέψεις, παν/μιο, πατέρας
Τις προάλλες είχα μια ενδιαφέρουσα συζήτησή με τον πατέρα μου. Με ρώτησε πόσα κάνω και του είπα. Παρεμπιπτόντως κάνουμε τα ίδια σχεδόν λεφτά (απ' ότι μου είπε αυτός δηλαδή). Τελικά μου είπε πως για να μπορώ να τα βγάλω πέρα

Χρονοδιάγραμμα της σειράς των Newton
%AM, %b %America/Chicago %2009, %R Newton, PDA, ΙστορικάΤις προάλλες είδα ένα χρονοδιάγραμμα για το πότε εκδόθηκε το κάθε μοντέλο Newton. Αρκετά ενδιαφέρον. Η συσκευή μου έχω είναι μοντέλο 2100. Δεν είχε και πολύ στην αγορά. Με το που τελείωνα λύκειο ακύρωσαν όλο το project.Το χρονοδιάγραμμα
