iPod + [super] PDA + Cell Phone

Leave a reply

Now that we’ve got both the:

I cannot help but want to have a single device that combines both of these (and also cell / mobile phone1).

You see, the iPod is great because I can store, and play,

  • Music
  • Pictures
  • Video

And the storage is large enough that I can put quite a bit (not nearly as much as I’d like to) and carry it around. But I cannot use this device to “communicate” (e-mail, browse the web, IM, chat etc) with my family, friends and co-workers.

That’s where the new Palm TX comes in.

Unfortunately, the RX does not have nearly enough storage :o( The LifeDrive is slightly better, but only slight.

Searching the Net

With all the developments in the general area of the Internet – searching it has become more complicated. This is partly because more and more resources are available and our searches are becoming more and more vague

Therefor, I really, really wish that search sites would allow me to:

  • Save my Searches
  • Rank my Search Results

So that I can return to my searches and refine them more till I eventually get to “the information”.

Social Security, Health Care etc

There is no doubt that Social Security is fairly bad state. What may be not as obvious, at least it isn’t to me, what exactly the “problem” is and how to fix it.

To me, the “problem” is that we don’t have a system to provide a safety net for our citizens. At a time when any kind of pension through job is all but gone, more of us need, depend on, a system similar to what Social Security was supposed to be.
