was driving down the road with a PDA in one hand and a Motorola Flip Phone in the other saying, "Why can't they be in one device?).
Steve Jobs saw a much larger number of people walking around with MP-3 players, some with NO phone at all, and the rest is, as they say, is HISTORY!
An engineer I used to work with and I had a big bet as to who would win the PDA format war, Palm or Windows.
What do engineers know? :-)
First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
