This site is expanding and developing great depth!

Someone tell me this: If you created a business and had the opportunity to expand, you wouldn't?

Mindfrost made a great entrepreneurial decision, and i stand by him and the rest of his ppcgeeks staff.

The term "Pocket PC" was first coined by Microsoft for PDAs that used their Windows Mobile Operating system. Remember PPC 2000 through PPC 2007? To me PPC has always refered to WinMo devices but times they are a changing.

I was under the same impression. I actually put up a thread on the Touch Pro forum that I was sad to leave PPCGeeks because I was switching to a Pre. I had no clue that this forum existed because I assumed it wouldn't be supported here. Glad someone let me know!

I owned a Palm device for a long time, each one was great. I had zero problems with them, but it was a pain to carry a PDA and a phone. I jumped ship to WinMo when my wife got me a 6700 for Christmas, it was a great phone, had some problems with them but over all they were fun. I am going to jump back to Palm from the Touch Pro, my wife has the Pre and it is sweet. I thought maybe it was just because it was different, but the responsiveness is amazing, I love the sound quality of the speaker on the back (very handy when using GPS with voice). The thing that amazed me was how great the Pre felt in my hand, it did not feel like a delicate toy. It felt like a phone, solid and sturdy. I really like how notifications don't interfere with what you are doing on the phone, you can leave a program running while texting and get back to the program smoothly. Over all, I feel the Pre is a great phone and cannot wait to get mine.
