on monday i will be one of those people with a palm pilot

[minxnim]

here are my options:

-say thanks and the play it off and pretend i used my own hard earned money to buy it.

- flinch when anyone asks me where i got it, cover my face and walk away saying "DONT ASK ME THAT ASSHOLE"

- say "NOT ALEX! CHRIST NOT HIM! JESUS!"

- hide it.

- hide myself forever.

 

[Steve]

sell it and buy a nice new laptop?

 

[Steve]

even better: take a paperback, cut out sections of the pages, put it in there, glue/fasten the pages so nobody can see it (the writing stic can be disguised as a pen/pencil for you "notes for my english grad class"

 

[minxnim]

i think ruining it or selling it would be mean.

 

[Steve]

the book wouldn't be ruining it...
it would just be hiding it

Prep, you're going to be joining the special group of PDA owners, first things first, "Palm Pilot" went away long ago. It's just "Palm". And if you get one of the new one, Its a "Tungsten" or "Zire". Just want you to be up on the "hip" lingo to go along with your new found self portable electronic organizer thingy.

My palm sure has a lot of dust on it these days. Hell, I could have sent you mine!

 

[minxnim]

paul, i will bring it to the show and be like "oh ok let me pseudo plastic pencil you into my PALM ok?"

haha! No NO NO! I can BEAM you the information!

It's a fun toy, and amusing for the first couple of months. You'll actually use it for appointments and such, so it will become an important tool for you. Me, It was just a toy. Now that my cell phone, and iPod holds all the numbers/address I need, the palm has become a paper weight.

program it to beam frequencies that open garage doors and unlock cars. then walk around the city wreaking havoc.

 

[minxnim]

i will !

 

[xfer]

between you and mia, you will TAKE THE WORLD APART.

 

[minxnim]

i can also program it to turn every radio station in every car to whatever station is currently playing "IN DA CLUB"

 

[lizard]

let me know what kind it is...we're researching right now the Treo 300, and the new Treo 600, which is phone, browser, email, and camera. I get to play with them under the guise of "testing"

 

[minxnim]

it's actually a little zire 21. it's really neat.

 

[lizard]

I'm looking forward to this. to think I get paid to play.

 

[minxnim]

i'm freaked out by the ones that are phones too. too big and weird.

 

[avi]

my cousin has one of the phone things and it's kind of neat, I guess. def too bulky for my tastes tho, I'd feel like I'd need a purse or something and that's not ok. my cellphone is big enough especially since the fucking belt clip for it sucks balls and I have to carry it in my pocket.

 

[xfer]

cell-phone belt clips are the gayest/most dorky-yuppie accessory ever.

 

[avi]

I have to carry it for work

at least that means I don't pay for it

 

[lizard]

these aren't so bad, really...narrower than a zip disk and only slightly thicker.
