NO.9 9.倒向你的墙
NO.10 10.不可救药的喜欢 January 11 The Wait is Over自从03年开始用SONY CLIE TJ37以来然后在05年初从淫杰同学那里拿到TREO 650，我身为一个palm fan已经6年了，这六年，palm从盛到衰，毫无改进，眼见市场份额被蚕食，产品更新缓慢，乏善可 陈，developer一个个摈弃palm而去，Palm在mobile界从当初的Smartphone 鼻祖地位，逐步沦落成为一个笑话。到08年的时候，那个传奇性的palm公司已经濒临破产，股票一度跌到一块多一股。Palm needed a miracle, and it needed it fast. Engadget上的Palm新闻都是以下的主题： 眼见palm就要不行了。 但是它还是拥有这么多的忠实用户在默默支持它。Die-hard palm fans like me have always been here for Palm, through troughs and peaks. 在engadget上Palm CES pre-annoucement的帖子用户留言，很多让我鼻子发酸。I can't think of any other consumer electronics brand having so many ardent and loyal followers (maybe other than Apple), even when it repeatedly disappoint its supporters for so many years: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I really really want to believe. I have been hurt so many times before. I know it is going to be difficult for palm to recover but GO PALM GO!! I'm rooting for you!! ----- There are some, like me, who were loyal to you, who had hopes and dreams for you. I've watch you crash, and burn, and then burn some more. Here is your chance, (or maybe it's more of a moment) to make some of us blink twice. So, Palm, please don't screw this up. Otherwise you'll be back in the pit and this time we'll use napalm. PS. It'd better be a phone, and have actual freakin' keys. -Your fans (all 9 of us.)
when I think of Palm, I have the following emotions: nostalgia - good thoughts about my Palm III for what it did during its time I'm rooting for you. -------------- I'm cheering for Palm too! I just hope the wait was worth it ---- For myself, I'm rooting for Palm for the fact that before there was the iPhone, before Google was a household word, and when RIM was looking as though it wouldn't last, there was Palm. Palm was the gadget, Palm was the tool, Palm was in your pocket and ready to work. I was a die-hard Palm user (my last unit was the Treo600). Lack of innovation and them selling out (of their OS and to MS) sent me running to something else. So I hope that they come out with some "Palm New-ness" that makes people reconsider their options for a handheld computing device. ------------------- I will always have a soft spot for Palm in my heart. Let's hope they do some good. ---- ------- --------- Having sold off your important bits (OS, Desktop) to those who didn't / haven't given a flying f*ck (PalmSource - then sold to ACCESS), prostituted yourselves to build indifferent and just plain dodgy hardware for wireless companies while ignoring your original fan base and then continued to promise us the world and consistently given us a lump of coal instead, you'll have to pull off a Miracle here. Palm New-ness, huh? Someone else's OS with even less functionality, using a dinky screen, in a smartphone built by Asus, more like. Still, feel free to supply us with a Miracle, Palm... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At CES on 2009 Jan 9, the wait is over. Palm finally delivers with Palm Pre and WebOS. Engadget 爆炸了，1月9日的Engadget是Palm的天下。Palm Pre In-depth hands on 的帖子有三百多回复。Gizmodo 说Palm Pre 是maybe the most important handset to be announced in two years.同一篇评论被Digg了1400多次。 当天Palm股票涨了35% This thing is so ahead of its competition that it completely changed the rules of the game.
man this is absolutely awesome! way to not disappoint! wait...disappoint?! hell you far exceeded expectations! way to go palm! yeah, i had absolutely NO expectations for Palm, and they just set this bitch on fire! If i didn't already have an iPhone I would probably be hotly anticipating this! Same here. I'm a long time Palm user, since the day of the old Palmpilots (US Robotics) but have been continuously disappointed with Palm as time goes on. I'm a berry user now but this phone looks awesome and I hope Palm does well from it. Innovations were what's lacking from Palm in the later years and this phone is an example of them doing something about it. Awesome! ------ A relevant product? From Palm? What is this, 1998? I'm impressed so far.
------ As a huge Android supporter and G1 owner... HOLY CRAP! Palm, you totally blew my mind. This thing is unbelievable. They are the first company to really sit down and look at what people really wanted, and deliver on it totally without holding back some critical feature. As a software developer, I'm eager to learn more about the SDK. He keeps talking about how the programs are made in HTML, CSS, and Javascript, but I'm really hoping that's an option IN ADDITION TO genuine binary apps. Surely nobody is going to write an NES emulator in Javascript, there has to be an abillity to write native apps. Once again, huge congratulations to Palm on this one. Everybody thought they had the 2009 smartphone competition all figured out, but Palm just turned the whole industry upside down. I can't wait to see what happens next.
the Pre reminds me of the cute fancy robot in Wall-e, and it makes all other phone look like wall-e good job Palm! what a comeback! From single threaded OS on death bed, to this. ------
--------- Palm ushers us into a whole new era with this phone. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

January 06 09年摩羯运势想起两位朋友说的话 B: 有首童谣说，星期六出生的孩子，要很努力地谋生.....加油:) 这两句话我都会记住
不管怎么说，希望自己2009年过得对得起自己 ------------------------------------------------------
脱胎换骨 苦后回甘 财运称冠 事业打拼有成
2009年对魔羯座而言，将是翻天覆地、彻底转型的挑战年，运势不如去年。尤其将数度与天外飞来的人生变局正面交手，过程历经痛苦煎熬与试炼，才出现终极蜕变。事业置之死地而后生，掌权、称霸、显赫、尊荣可期。第一季、第三季和年底运势震荡，全年财运看俏，存款节节上升。
魔羯座今年事业硬仗连连，没有侥幸空间。以诚意勤快、任劳任怨、物超所值、忠实牢靠和精简成本、提高效益取胜，是较不易名列裁员清单的中流砥柱。可惜人算不如天算，有时难免受外部不利因素拖累，生涯规划要有危机感和权宜之计。
财富健康
美丽人生：12月下旬到1月中旬、4月下旬到5月中旬、8月下旬到9月中旬
招财幸运色：黑、墨绿 August 17 记事the pictures of the long-rumored Treo 850 have finally surfaced online. And it's certainly the best-looking Treo ever!!!
it seems the device runs windows mobile. it would be even better if it runs on Palm OS ( a new version of course, if there will ever be one). But still, the form factor of this new babe alone is enough reason for me to loosen my purse string.
here are the specs:
- Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
ok, something else. 好像每次写blog都会提到有人要走，这次是chengliang。下周五最后一天在CS. 这样，我当初join的时候team里的四大金刚全走了。 才一年多一点，整个team已经变得面目全非。。。（好像用词不当。。beyond recognition） 不过他也是去更好的地方，只有祝福他了。
下周一去上班，就会换到新座位了。这次的restack把我们team从面CBD的一面调到了面海的一面。这样就有sea view啦，工作之余远眺海上的大小船只悠闲地漂移，应该是不错的感觉。
从这周三起，每周三都会和team里的朋友一起跑步了。这周三我们从One Raffles Quay跑到Esplanade，再继续跑到Singapore Flyer，再接着跑啊跑啊一直跑到Kallang RiverSide Park，跑了四站地铁，好累啊。然后在Singapore Flyer下的Popeye's 吃汉堡薯条可乐。。套用teammate的话就是a very healthy effort with an extremely unhealthy ending. 好吧，reminds me of my recent little weight problem....不过我相信我体重很快就会减下来的，因为大部分体重都是在七月在国内的三周假期时候填鸭式的吃出来的，只要不要晚上加班的时候暴饮暴食就已经成功一半了。btw, Singapore Flyer在跟前看的时候真高，上去兜一圈应该是不错的体验。Jan 和Mike锻炼是为了12月的Standard Chartered Run的21km做准备，Sam是为了pass Army的测验，下周要join我们的Ankur是为了减肥（工作一年他重了20公斤左右吧）我没什么明确目的，只是为了省点gym钱，至于Standard Chartered Run，估计要报也就报个10km吧。
新搬的住所挺好的，什么都很方便，上班只要十分钟地铁，离city hall8分钟，bugis 6分钟，楼下有直接去orchard的bus，离Geylang的小吃街也是只有几十米之隔，要慢慢来发掘美食了，楼下还有很多吃饭的地方和24小时的超市。今天更是发现附近的一家中餐馆送花样繁多的各种外卖。以后吃饭都不用下楼了。哈哈。
还有，昨天跟老板请了假，十一月份去越南玩。研究路线中。
