"Greetings, mobile accomplishers" should have left with Dieter. It's always better to have your own bit.
If you have any suggestions, I'm open.
The journey is more satisfying if you find your own way, grasshopper. ;)
Don't take what I said as harsh criticism, just a friendly suggestion. You should put your own unique stamp on something to truly call it your own. Kinda like how Leno isn't introduced as "Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrre's Jay!"
"Greeting Mobile Neanderthals" ? (referring to our hardware is very outdated and we're still waiting on "newer" outdated hardware.
I agree. The whole thing needs to be refreshed. It's not a PalmCast anymore. Stitcher text still shows PalmPad, etc. If the new devices and operating system are to make it, they need to be kicked out of the nest to get on with it.
How about "Welcome WebOS users"?
So has The Keith Newman officially jumped ship to a different platform? His last appearance was on one of the iOS podcasts.
And what about Kevin's webOS experiment? Did he return his TouchPad?
I think he dropped P|C like a bad habit. He was quick to badmouth webos when he was on the IOS podcast. They pretty much mocked webos users.
I guess they don't expect hard core webos users to listen to an ios podcast...probably true
Keith will be back in the coming months
I don't even bother buying new apps for my pre and i'm sure i'm not alone in this boat.
Why spend money when I have a 2 year old phone and no new webos device to switch to?
I agree ... I'm tired of slider phones. Give me a thin slate phone, or give it a bigger battery to make it the same thickness as a physical keyboard phone.
Keith is a Sprint customer and he likes to bounce around to new devices. Look at what new webOS devices are coming to Sprint and do the math.
Don't hate the player...
