In Praise of the Tungsten E
News sites yesterday carried word that new models of the Palm wouldn't feature OS6 despite earlier promises that they would.
The major benefits of OS6 are supposed to be multitasking and multimedia support.
Right now, I'm listening to mp3's on my SD card and typing using my wireless keyboard. Meanwhile, my calendar application pops up a reminder to get fixings for dinner tonight. I'm doing all of this on OS5 with the economy model palm, the Tungsten E.
Don't listen to the hype. Unless you're one of the people who will actually use WiFi or bluetooth support for your palm, just get the tungsten E. It's more than enough machine for anything your need your PDA to do.
