Boy Genius Reviews the Palm Pre

2009-06-01T18:34:00.003-04:00

Boy Genius has the world's first review of the Palm Pre. They found the Palm Pre to be good but not great and had both positive and negative things to say.

The OS is great. There’s no ifs ands or buts; it’s really refreshing to see something that’s brand new with a UI unlike anything else out there. The only problem with this is, Palm’s never been a hardware company that anyone’s really cared about. They have been the furthest thing from innovative since circa-2003 — their hardware has always been second rate at best and it doesn’t seem to be changing now. Couple that with the nation’s underdog carrier at a $299 price-point (before rebate), and we’re not sure how many people are going to be lined up overnight, yet we’re pretty confident once people are able to play a real unit themselves, there will be more than a lot of happy Palm Pre customers.

Pocketables reviews UMID mbook M1

2009-05-13T15:25:00.003-04:00

Jenn K lee has posted a review of the UMID mbook M1. This is a small clamshell UMPC that can fit in a purse. She has positive things to say about this UMPC.

Considering that I came up with twice as many pros than cons and explained why none of those cons were dealbreaking flaws for me, it's no secret that my feelings about the UMID mbook M1 MID are very positive. There are obviously compromises involved in using the mbook, but I think it comes closer than any other device ever has to providing the full computing experience in a truly pocketable form.

Braille E-book Concept Design

2009-04-20T22:41:00.002-04:00

This concept design would make a lot of sense to the blind. A braille E-book reader would help the blind read books since so few are in braille format. Here is what the designers thought about:

Visually challenged people require braille books in order to read. However, not many books are available in braille due to cost and inefficiency. Translating a 500 page book into braille nearly doubles the thickness. EAP is a technology that can dynamically change the surface pattern by way of an electromagnetic signal - simulating braille text. Not exactly a new idea but a nice executive nonetheless.
