Note to someone

Scoble pointed to this story about the possibility of a Pocket PC pricewar just in time for Christmas. Given all the discussion we’ve had around here concerning PocketPC and Palm, it’s probably worth noting to someone planning to buy me a Christmas gift. 🙂

By the way, I think the deciding factor between PocketPc and Palm for me is going to be MP3 playback. I want to be able to use it to listen to MP3’s while traveling. Palms don’t seem to come with that feature preinstalled, and don’t appear to have a headphone jack either. Or am I missing something?

    I know the blog world is abuzz with news from Longhorn, but don’t expect to see much about it here. Frankly, I’ve got too much to keep with that is actually in my office, either at home or at work, to worry about something that won’t be available for another couple of years, at least,…
