The benefit of time and experience can often mean the difference between moving forward or remaining at the same level. Palace Malice was impressive during his juvenile campaign, demonstrating the promise many had seen after his first two starts, said Todd Pletcher, the trainer of the three-year-old colt, and one of the five Kentucky Derby starters conditioned by the five-time Eclipse Award winning trainer.
Pletcher also will have Verrazano, Revolutionary, Overanalyze and Charming Kitten in Saturday's 139th running of the 1¼-mile, $2 million, Grade 1 Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs.
"He was really impressive as a two-year-old, finishing second in his first start, and winning his second start impressively at Saratoga," said Pletcher, in a phone interview on Monday morning. "He had some problems that interrupted his season, sore shins. So, we decided to give him some time off."
Palace Malice seemed to benefit from the respite, and matured physically as he began gearing up for his sophomore campaign, said the trainer. The May 2 foal, made his 2013 debut in a 7-furlong allowance race at Gulfstream Park on Jan. 19, finishing second over an off track.
"I was impressed with the way he had been training, and was pleased with his first race at Gulfstream even with the speed favoring nature of the track," said Pletcher.
A strong stakes debut in the Grade 2 Risen Star, where Palace Malice finished third, beaten a head in the 1 1/16-mile race at the Fair Grounds on Feb, 23, seemed to suggest the colt was capable of bigger things. However, racing luck was not on his side in the 1⅛-mile Grade 2 Louisiana Derby on March 30.
"The way his trip unwound in the Louisiana Derby, where he lacked racing room, forced our hand," said Pletcher. "We had to squeeze in one more race, although it was one more than we wanted."
However, as luck would have it, fate may not have been on Palace Malice's side in the Lousiana Derby, but it certainly was in his next start at Keeneland in the Grade 1 Blue Grass Stakes on April 13.
"Im glad that he earned his way in, and I've been very pleased with the way he's been coming into the Derby," said Pletcher.

I was a little peeved by the benediction during today's Inauguration Ceremony for Barack Obama. Private prayer (though still unhelpful) is fine; but government-organized prayer is just wrong. I hope that in my lifetime this goes away as a standard for these types of events.
"One nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
Views: 549
I wouldn't hold my breath. The Supremes have already ruled on the matter. It's paradoxical: they can't teach religion in public schools (which is good) but it's okay to pray at government functions. I wonder how many are actually praying rather than wondering how long it will last, where he got that great suit, whether she knows what her hairdo looks like from behind, why doesn't that bitch shut her kids up, etc.
The Supremes have already ruled on the matter.
This is one of my favorite examples of a religious partisan on the Supreme Court using pretzel-like logic to ignore a clear violation of the constitution:
"Finally, we have noted that government cannot be completely prohibited from recognizing in its public actions the religious beliefs and practices of the American people as an aspect of our national history and culture. While I remain uncertain about these questions, I would suggest that such practices as the designation of "In God We Trust" as our national motto, or the references to God contained in the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag can best be understood, in Dean Rostow's apt phrase, as a form a "ceremonial deism," protected from Establishment Clause scrutiny chiefly because they have lost through rote repetition any significant religious content. Moreover, these references are uniquely suited to serve such wholly secular purposes as solemnizing public occasions, or inspiring commitment to meet some national challenge in a manner that simply could not be fully served in our culture if government were limited to purely nonreligious phrases. The practices by which the government has long acknowledged religion are therefore probably necessary to serve certain secular functions, and that necessity, coupled with their long history, gives those practices an essentially secular meaning." - Justice William Brennan, 1984, Lynch v. Donnelly
This is how the Supreme Court squares the circle. According to Justice Brennan:
That last one is the crown jewel of idiocy. It boggles the mind. The primary function of the Supreme Court is the application of constitutional scrutiny. Brennan openly refuses to perform this function where references to God are concerned. God is so essential, secular, and non-religious that no scrutiny is needed.
Thus the Supreme Kangaroo has ruled. But that doesn't mean the ruling can't be challenged and overturned, although I grant it won't happen in the court of Chief Kangaroo Justice Roberts.
That also doesn't mean the practice must be made illegal in order to stop it. What if the United States is 60% non-religious by 2100? Prayer is a useful political tool. Once it becomes a political liability they'll stop exploiting it.
The Supreme Court argument is absurd. It does not satisfactorily address, imo, "Congress shall make NO law respecting the establishment of religion." "In god we trust" clearly establishes government preference/endorsement of monotheism over polytheism and non-theism. The national motto is not "in gods we trust" and it is not "in no gods we trust." To me, "in god we trust" is not only unconstitutional, it is embarrasing - it translates to "we trust in an imaginary being." "E pluribus unum" was far better.
Be careful about reading our preferred meaning into the word "respecting".
It has the dated, or formal, meaning "with reference or regard to."
Join that with the fact that before the post-Civil War 14th Amendment, the Constitution applied to the Federal government only.
The originalists on the Court read the establishment clause as saying the national legislature shall make make no law interfering with, or trying to disestablish, churches established by state and local governments.
See Akhil Reed Amar's 1998 The Bill of Rights, page 32. Amar was then a law professor at Yale.
"ceremonial deism"
So then why recognize a deity that 'created the universe, then walked away, taking a permanent vacation'?
So does this give the federal government a secular 'pope' like position, speaking for 'God', with no direct authorization given by the invisiable guy in the sky? I get the feeling of a childish pretend type of ceremonial process, that keeps the true-believers happy, and the more practical folks with a tool for social control.
a...pretend type of ceremonial process, that keeps the true-believers happy, and the more practical folks with a tool for social control.
Bingo! How many neoconservatives do you think are "true believers" and how many do you think truly believe that religion is a great political tool? They don't care about God, gays, or abortion so much as they care about getting enough of the poor and the middle class fired up on 'culture wars' issues so that those voters will elect a representative whose fiscal policy actually harms them. It's pretty ruthless and it's worked for a long time. You have to give them that.
I have more than once thought, that if I play the game really well, I could have people give me money just for 'believing their crap'. As a contractor, I noticed a tendency for customers to talk about their politics or religious positions during my job. If I were to challendge them on some of the more odd positions, it was clear that the knife edge of acceptance with kick in, and they would cut me off.
Over time I found ways to appear to either agree or fail to show interest. My worst experiences were during jobs where we needed to work together. Hyper-theists can be some really ugly work partners when it comes to ideas, ways of doing things, sources of knowledge, and power gaming.
One Muslum I worked with for a while would not allow me to whisle at the job site or listen to music. I finally told him to mind is own business, if he wanted me to work for him, he needed to not forget what country he is in! His country of origin Tunisia, has recently had a cultural revolution, maybe they have lossened up a little?
Hah. Because the phrase no longer has significance it can be left alone.
Of course it clearly does have significance to the millions of fucktards who scream bloody murder if you talk about removing it.
He swears to uphold our secular, godless Constitution by swearing an oath on a Bible and a "so help me god?" They use our taxpayer money to promote their particular versions of monotheism/Judeo-Christianity? The inauguration was more like a church service. As such, I found it very disappointing.
It really bothers me how many references there were to an imaginary being. I wish there were some FSM banners flying and displayed on national television. I wish just one announcer/reporter asked, "I wonder to which god he is referring?" And followed it with, "because that character in the Bible sure is horrific, as is most of the book itself."
Imagine yourself at the bank....
"Do you swear to uphold your duties to pay down this mortgage, so help you God"
I am 100% in agreement with your opinion, Arianne. While I was exhilarated by President Obama's progressive compassion, I had to cringe whenever another member of the clergy or a craven politician got up and attributed America's greatness (such as it is) - past, present, and future - to some phantasmagorical magic white man in the sky. At one point, I was moved to speculate what it would be like if one of these hypocrites decided, instead of thanking God for all His blessings, decided instead to curse Him ( or Her, or It) for all the misery He (or She or It) visits upon humanity.
I wondered why this didn't occur during the Great Recession or any number of natural disasters. Perhaps social stigma keeps these thoughts private.
I remember asking God, "why" several times. That was near enough to blasphemy, questioning God's plan. But never did I have the hutspa to curse at him while a Christian.

Treo 680 First Looks All Over Again
I think that I've been lucky with all of the phones that I've reviewed in the Smartphone Round Robin. I think there's a proper order. I began with the device furthest away in mentality to the iPhone, the BlackBerry Curve, and it was a fine device. I missed having a touchscreen, but it was a good device. Then, I got to use the Tilt for a week, and that was actually another good device -- very powerful with its touchscreen, and it has a form factor at least in parts reminiscent of the iPhone, though maybe without some of its ease of use. And last, I get to review the Treo, which is in many ways the closest of all of the phones we'll review to the iPhone. Did you know that iPhone owners were 7 times more likely to have used a Treo (or Sidekick) than any other phone?
I reviewed the Treo 680 before as a writer for TreoCentral, and as far as I know, it's in the top five of the TreoCentral page views to this day. I reviewed the 680 (Graphite) and then promptly went out and bought one (orange). I then handed off the trusty 650 to my wife, and that was the way things were until I bought an iPhone. Some crafty thief broke into her car to get her 650, and I then handed my trusty orange 680 off to my wife and focused on the iPhone and our site for it, phonedifferent.com. I didn't intend to look back, but that's more or less what I've been doing for the past few days with the Treo 680: reminiscing.
I say reminiscing because the Palm OS look and feel hasn't really substantially changed in quite some time. It still looks and behaves more or less the same as it did when I got my first Palm, the Palm III. Now it has colors, of course, and it's a phone too (and a pretty handy one at that), it can browse the web, play media, sync with a computer, all sorts of stuff. I don't lose all of my data when the battery runs out anymore. The screen is a generous 320x320; considering the phone has been out for a year, it's still ahead of most of the rest. The icons, though unified in appearance, are different enough to easily differentiate. It's a testament to how well PalmOS was designed that it is not just sold, but that it's still relevant. When Palm messes up, you still hear about it. People still look to Palm as a smartphone savior, they still want Palm to succeed. If they didn't, we wouldn't get the occasional blog rant from wherever on the internet about how Palm is mussing up and Palm should do this and Palm should do that (think Engadget).
But that's not really the point of this review. My job is to review the 680 and to give it some first looks again, like I did almost exactly a year ago. I re-read my review, and I don't feel it was as good as it should have been. I talked about specs and what's included and how does this match up and how does that match up, to be sure, but the review seems incomplete: it was a review aimed at anyone that had already been using a Palm OS Treo and was technically proficient with a Palm OS Treo. I should have broadened the scope of my review to be sure. Part of that was a time constraint; Palm moved the release date forward a bunch of days and we decided to rush to get it done in time to publish. This review will hopefully not make those same mistakes.
First Looks, um, Second Looks
Palm OS is admirable in that Palm has consistently tried to make things easy and consistent for the person using it. Palm thinks of everything on the main "home" screen as an application, including the phone app. The home screen is the application launcher. Palm OS was initially built to do some very simple things: take care of To-Do lists, calendars, memos, and manage contacts. Everything else has been bolted on over the years.
the app "home" screen from the Centro is more or less the same as the 680
the app "home" screen from the iPhone
The application names and icons tend to give a good idea of what each application does, as opposed to function as branding. With the exception of HotSync and some of the branded apps like GetGood, XPressMail, and My Treo (which should probably have been called 'Help'), everything is straightforward. Not all of the apps are totally user-friendly in that a lot of not-always-useful stuff is loaded on the starting screen. I know for a fact that my wife has never used the Card Info app, or Security, or Sim Srvcs, or SIM Book, or Wired Car Kit, or what have you. I almost would prefer for Palm to hide some of the branded and advanced apps a bit more behind the scenes. Maybe there could be an advanced app that would hide them. Maybe Palm could make a seciton in 'Prefs' that would hide or unhide those apps. Maybe 'Quick Tour' could hide itself after you ran it for the first time. Or perhaps Palm could incorporate the notion of folders into their launcher program. For their talk of 'expanding the smartphone market' to featurephone users, there are still myriad options on Palm OS. I bet they could put the Wired Car Kit options into the 'Prefs' app if they really wanted. My favorite personal solution for the extra cruft here is 'Invisible.prc,' which uses Palm OS' own mechanism for hiding files from the Launcher.
But herein lies the rub: Palm OS is dying, seemingly not especially enamored by Palm themselves (but more on that later). Palm will probably never make those changes -- For all we know, the 680 represented the last great push of features into Palm OS. It got an updated version of Blazer, a new phone app, and the return of the voice memo app. Palm recently released an update to the 680, but only for
Cingular AT&T customers, which means that they probably only released the patch because AT&T made them do it talked them into it.
I was always fond of the 680's phone app, it represented one concept that I liked about Windows Mobile: the 'today' screen. It also brought wallpaper to Palm OS. Some liked the new phone app, some didn't, some thought the old method of lists on the phone app were better, etc. Palm claimed that the phone app may or may not have been tied to the GSM chipset and therefore we wouldn't ever see it on CDMA phones like the Centro, which I think is unfortunate -- it's a good update to their other phone app, which is a few years old now. It makes things more friendly. It's the right thing to do.
oh hey, the iPhone has a 5-tab phone app too
The Future of Palm OS
Palm will not invest any more time or money in Palm OS than they absolutely have to. And from the looks of things, they don't intend to invest any time or money into Palm OS. Palm OS is like Latin, except that it's not dead. Palm is going to make a Linux smartphone, and that's their software future. They haven't announced any plans to ship a linux phone with Android, they aren't likely to ever ship a linux phone based off the Access Linux Project, they are shipping THEIR OWN LINUX PHONE. They have a plan for the future, and it will probably be revealed to us in trickles along the next two years when they finally finish their new Linux Palm OS.
I really look forward to this, the OS that they created for PDAs was brilliant and ahead of its time. I love my iPhone. If you want it, you're welcome to pry it from my cold dead hands. That said, I'm really interested to see what Palm releases, as they have a significant opportunity in the present to start from scratch, unlike *all* of their competitors. With their other competitors, it seems that the die has been cast. If you listen to the TreoCentral TreoCast starring myself and Dieter, you've heard me voice this sentiment before. The Palm of now is the Apple of 1996 -- in the dumps with a faltering stock price with much of their product lineup fading into irrelevance, but newly reinvigorated by an influx of cash and management talent.
And so in the meantime, Palm OS is what we're left with.
Though They're Done With It, They Didn't Finish It
In a lot of ways, there's a bunch of stuff that Palm OS just doesn't do. Extended profiles, for example: Palm ships with two, and you switch between them with the vibrate switch up at the top. You can totally do custom ringtones, all you have to do is 1) find a decent MIDI file site or 2) convert your MP3s or WAVs to AMR files, further convert them to a .pdb file, and presto! You're done. Easy as pie, right? Everyone followed along there? Good! Now, we'll put some MP3s on your device to play with pTunes. First, copy the MP3 files you want on your SD card to /some/convoluted/path. If your software doesn't support copying playlists to arbitrary directories, you'll want to copy each song manually. This will be a bummer if you use iTunes with all of its nested directories. What's that? Most of you do use iTunes? Well, that's okay. You just spend as much time on this step as you want.
wi-fi was possible on the 650 by a valiant effort from Enfora, but not pretty. No one came forward for such a beast on the 680.
And if you want wi-fi, you're pretty much out of luck. When Palm added the code for multiple radios (bluetooth and cell radio), they did it in a way that it wouldn't be easy to put in a 3rd radio. Sure, Palm OS will do wi-fi, but it won't do it in conjunction with a cell radio. Enfora figured out how to add wi-fi with a sled, but it's a pretty sub-par solution compared to the SD card wi-fi bits you can get for Windows Mobile. That's too bad -- wi-fi on a cell phone at home changed my life. Every time I look at my cell phone, I think that someday I'll be making VOIP calls on my iPhone over wi-fi at home instead of dealing with my crummy cellular signal.
I'm being snarky here, but you get the idea: Palm effectively stopped development on PalmOS about a year ago, maybe more. As other smartphones and featurephones become more advanced, Palm OS abides. Slowly becoming irrelevant feature-wise. The checklist of powerful features that PalmOS once dominated has grown, and with each passing day, other smartphones add features that the current version of Palm OS (Garnet) will never see.
You Can Do Anything Except Multi-Task
Palm OS is a single-tasking operating system for most things -- you can listen to music in the background, but you can't download something while you watch a video or have multiple tabs or anything like that. The flip side to this is that everything you do (minus viewing the web) is pretty snappy.
The Treo's web browser, aka the itty-bitty kinda-sorta internet
The 680 is a lot like Windows Mobile, in that it has a bunch of programs available that you can install to do just about anything. There are some excellent media add-ons available with Palm OS, and if you have one of the Treos with 3G, there's a Sling player available for Slingboxes; there's the excellent Kinoma directory for plenty of content available for watching on Treos, it's a very video friendly device. You can install J2ME and use Opera; you can buy PocketTunes deluxe to get iTunes syncing (minus DRM protected AAC files bought from iTunes).
One of the unfortunate things about the 3rd party support for Treos is that some developers have left the fold. Since Treos don't grow at nearly the rate of other smartphones, some folks consider it "dead." For some reason, this also includes Palm -- we once interviewed the CEO of Opera and asked him why they didn't make a Palm native version of Opera, and he told us Palm told him not to bother, since their new OS would be coming. That was probably a few years ago. And though some of the heavy-hitting search apps do make their way to Palm OS, some of them don't. Some of the third party apps that I used to love using are gone -- my favorite alarm clock hasn't seen an update in quite some time; some of the apps that I used in earlier years aren't even available to download anymore. Some of that can be attributed to the length of time Palms have been available, but not all -- for a number of reasons, Palm just didn't capitalize on the success of their PDAs when it comes to smartphones.
But even though these developers have left the fold, that doesn't mean that there's not a bunch of fun tweaking to be had. If there's something that bugs you about Palm OS and you're technically inclined, it's possible to burn your own firmware if you like. There are many, many possibilities available on Palm OS. As is usual with all smartphones except for the one I've been using for the past few months, there's 3rd party software to take care of any shortcomings. I don't know what's popular for ringtones, and I don't know what people use to manage ringing profiles, but the software is out there, and there's plenty of it.
In Hindsight, iPhone 0.5 Beta
Using a Treo is a lot like using an iPhone, though. It looks to me like Apple borrowed pretty liberally from Palm OS, which was probably a smart idea since Palm OS is very usable, very easy to grasp, and still pretty easy on the eyes. I'm still surprised at how good it looks. Surely there are nits: there's no font smoothing out of the box, the browser is ancient, and the icons are somewhat blocky by modern standards. Minus the phone app home screen that the 680 Treo has, the iPhone seems almost a hit-for-hit evolution of the fundamental principles of Palm OS. For example, settings for most things are hidden within the Prefs app on Palm OS. On the iPhone, they're hidden within the 'Settings' app, though the iPhone does a better job of stowing everything inside of their respective settings app than Palm OS. It could be said that the iPhone is the logical conclusion of Palm OS, minus a few key omissions.
I think this is the main reason that Palm OS users tend to flock to the iPhone -- the iPhone gave all of those Palm OS users the upgrade path they've been looking for. A lot of people didn't upgrade their 650s when the 680 came out, since the 680 wasn't a compelling upgrade in all cases. I think those same users flocked to the iPhone at 7x the rate of other phone owners. They might return to Palm OS once Palm's Linux OS comes out. Heck, I might go back once Palm's Linux OS comes out.

Treo 680 First Looks All Over Again
One thing I've never understood is why people consider the Treo 680 "inferior" to other Treos, i.e. 700p, 755.
[*] The user accessible memory is the same (about 64 MB), but what is that extra 64 MB of non-accessible memory used for?
[*] The CPU clock speed is the same (312 MHz), but what are the real differences amongst the series of XScale chips (PXA270 vs 271 vs 272)?
[*] EDGE vs EVDO is something else that is mentioned, but if you are on T-Mobile that point is irrelevant
[*] Battery life is an issue with the 680, I accept that (and feel the pain every day)
Can somebody clearly explain what these differences really mean and why the 680 is a lesser Treo than the 755 (ignoring EVDO vs EDGE)?
One thing I've never understood is why people consider the Treo 680 "inferior" to other Treos, i.e. 700p, 755.
The real question is what makes any of these phones better than the Centro?
Mike's observation on the similarities between the Treo and iPhone are interesting. And I'm just as he describes: a Treo 650 user who has seen no compelling reason to upgrade in the Treo line and is just waiting for the next version of the iTreo, err, I mean iPhone.
What I don't understand is the comment about the cluttered home screen. I just make up categories for frequently used apps (main, utilities, games, etc.) and go to that screen if I don't already have a button assigned. This was one of the first things I did when getting the phone.
Great article Mike !
I think a lot of former Treo users (like myself) migrated to the iPhone because, the OS X for the iphone is what Palm OS II should have been now.
I am excited about Palm OS II, but given the mobile OS space is getting a little bit crowded, I'm not too sure on Palm's OS future. I am seeing another deja vu of PalmSource happening again. Remember the time that they also stopped support for Garnet to focus on Palm OS on linux (now ALP)? After that, they just ran out of cash and got bought out.
The new elevation deal seems that Palm received an influx of cash, but take note that they also borrowed a lot of money to pay the shareholders. I do hope Mr. Rubinstein has a trick up his sleeve. :)
Seriously just waiting for the Linux Palm OS. I'll probably have another 3-4 phones before we see it though...
Mike makes some great observations in this article- it's a good read.
Also, the comparison screen shots of similarities between the iPhone and the Treo are revealing. It's a forceful, logical article.
Another great article, Mike! Great insights, and good stuff to think about. It sure seems like the Palm community is just trying to figure out what to do in the "interim" time, doesn't it? Lots have bailed to the iPhone. Lots have bailed to WM (me included ... maybe). It'll be interesting to see if they'll come back in a year or two or three whenever the new stuff emerges. Palm's fate probably depends on that.
Great article. I like many others like the comparisons with the Iphone. Keep up the good work.
thanks for the article Mike...
I disagree with most of the things you say about the Palm OS needing more tweaking. I think that devices such as the Blackberry and Iphone have raised the standards on their respective strong suits (Email and Media) that in that respect they have dwarfed the Palm OS' ease of use in everything.
A device has to fit your lifestyle.
Iphone's are for people who have the time to enjoy the multimedia capabilities.
Crackberries are for people who need their email fast and with very little troubleshooting and need to communicate with other crackberry addicts.
For those of us in between, there are Treo's.
If I had time to watch a video through a tiny screen, I would probably be with the evil orange and blue and own a Stevephone.
If I checked 500+ emails a day such as some of you and all my friends (who I actually communicate with daily) owned a crackberry, I'd probably have a crackberry.
I still think that a Treo is a more complete device than all of its competitors. They just don't have the cold-hard cash and name recognition that the Blackberry and Iphone enjoy.
and for the record...as far as Operating Systems go...nowadays they take a while to get released...think about the gap between Windows XP (rel. 2001) and Windows Vista (rel. 2006-2007) Palm could have gone out half-cocked and released what they have now, full of bugs (and we know the current Garnet has got many already) and end up just like Microsoft ended up with three OS within three years, ME, 2000 and XP.
As buggy as Garnet is, I prefer a devil I know.
Mike, aside from asthetic aspects, and the wifi that you mentioned, were there any other areas on the 680 that you just found wanting compared to you iPhone? It seems like they are pretty much similar for you, hence my question.
While I'm not really a fan of Palm devices, I am a fan of Linux, I'm waiting patiently to see the mobile version that Palm comes up with at this point, it's been a long time coming...so it better be good lol...I expect it to be better then Mokka.
One thing I've never understood is why people consider the Treo 680 "inferior" to other Treos, i.e. 700p, 755.
Can somebody clearly explain what these differences really mean and why the 680 is a lesser Treo than the 755 (ignoring EVDO vs EDGE)?
Not sure if I will clearly explain, since as you mention, much of the hardware is essentially equal. The differences in hardware are a more powerful original battery, a better camera (.3 vs 1.3), and mini SD slot. But there is more than just hardware.
Key in comparison is the connection of EvDO being about 6 times faster than Edge- not a factor for you, but huge if you are comparing devices and want to stream music and make use of all the software.The hardware differences there are tilt toward the 755p, but probably not so drastically that it would be worth the cost when you already own a 680.
Also important is included software. The 755p offers more, meaning you have to purchase less from third parties...off the top of my head, it includes a later version of p-tunes for streaming, docs to go 10, plus a free instant messaging program for YIM AIM and MS. It also addressed quality issues regarding memory lag.
The differences are clearly incremental. With the exception of EvDO and the camera, everything (including battery life) can be equal or better on the 680 with third party applications. It's a small evolutionary gap to the newer 755p making it incrementally better than the 680...not so important when considering you can get the 680 for free with a contract right now.
If it could've been managed, the 755p (or Centro) was better suited for comparison in the Round Robin because of the speed advantage, and less necessity to tweak for optimum use, but that's just my feeling.
Oh man, I was just looking at the Nokia N810 which runs on Linux as well, now if PalmOS looks half as good as this when they launch it, Palm may win back alot of people...sorry I know this directly does not pertain to the article but..it may be giving us a heads up on what to expect from Palm in the future...Have a look here
I still think that a Treo is a more complete device than all of its competitors. They just don't have the cold-hard cash and name recognition that the Blackberry and Iphone enjoy.
The Treo sure doesn't seem complete sometimes with its lack of GPS and wi-fi among other things. I look at it as a versatile platform beyond its prime. We mostly get by well enough with the Treo but can't help but watch the new kids on the block strut their stuff.
As buggy as Garnet is, I prefer a devil I know.
Familiarity is what it boils down to. The Palm OS is comfortable and it still works well enough for most uses. In another year it will be that much farther behind, though.
Didn't Palm originate at Apple? Did it not succeed the Newton? If so, it seems that a lot of the same goals and strategies are at work at Apple today as they were back when they came up with the palm pilot in the first place.

Ha! The Newton (1993-1998) was interesting page in Apple's history but I don't believe there was any connection with the PalmPilot (1996+) other than that one Palm founder was coincidentally an employee of Apple in the 1980's. The Newton was a PDA before that term existed. I remember handling one the year they came out and thinking it was pretty neat but rather large and awfully expensive.
Palm took the basic idea of the Newton and other early PDA attempts and greatly improved the concept with the PalmPilot. Over a decade later the heritage of today's Palm OS is clear and undoubtedly a reason some of us treat the Treo like an old friend even though it disappoints in some ways. Even brand new devices like the iPhone can't help but have some similarities to the original Palm.
It's interesting that handwriting recognition which was the basis of the Pilot (and the Newton before it) has never really caught on, so now we deal with laughably small physical keyboards or "soft" keyboards.

Yes, Palm was a Silicone Valley startup with very little capital and no connection to Apple. A good read on the history of Palm from a few yrs ago is Piloting Palm, worth the time to read if interested in the period.
The marketplace pretty much demanded the keyboard as it is quicker and more accurate for most people. You can still get versions of Graffiti on todays phones through places like inkmarksoftware, but no one is demanding it still be bundled; kind of sad in a way.
I envision a truly next generation Treo losing its edges, moving the home buttons off to the sides and expanding to a 480x320 screen while keeping a keyboard.
I envision a truly next generation Treo ...expanding to a 480x320 screen while keeping a keyboard.
I'll be first in line for that one! We can only dream............
I'll be first in line for that one! We can only dream............
LoL- yes, dream and pray for no more Palm vaporware!
Nice observations. My feeling, as a longtime Treo user (600/650) who has been on a Sprint Q for a year, is that both Palm OS and WinMob Smartphone are easy-to-use, and do everything that I need, but the iPhone is not only easy-to-use, but also fun-to-use. Palm OS is even more utilitarian than WinMob, IMO, and is in dreadful need of some eye-candy.
Palm OS is even more utilitarian than WinMob, IMO, and is in dreadful need of some eye-candy.
It's been said previously here that in order to make the Palm appealing a third party launcher and phone shell are needed...unfortunate that Palm didnt spend a bit of time on the visual appeal issue lately.
I guess energies are being spent elsewhere at Palm - the next couple of new Palms are reportedly going to be winmob devices but lets hope they give us an idea of where the hardware end of things is going.
Random thought here...I don't know if it's been integrated into a phone yet, but wouldn't it be cool for Palm to introduce something similar to Sandisk's new Take TV into their next gen phones.

I go from stool to stool in singles bars hoping to get lucky, but there's never any gum under any of them.

Most of us think of fast food, office doughnuts, or that tub of ice cream in the freezer when we think of diet traps. But what about those unplanned little grazings that happen when we wander out to happy hour with colleagues after work, hit the nightclubs for somebody's birthday on the weekend, or gather with friends at the local sports bar to watch the playoff game on Sunday afternoon? Somebody passes around a bucket of wings, a plate of calamari, or a couple of orders of fries and onion rings, and you decide you're just going to try one of these, one of those, and you surely can't refuse that one at the happy hour price—it's like throwing money away! Emboldened by judgment-loosening alcoholic beverages (not to mention highly caloric), a whole diet plan can be shredded in one evening. But none of us wants to stay home with our celery sticks and cabbage soup while our friends and coworkers are out on the town. So let's take a look at some of the worst offenders offered up at our favorite watering holes and some alternatives we can order instead.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. --- The Chattanooga Mocs (6-9/1-1) earned a hard-fought Southern Conference 74-70 road win at Samford (3-12/1-1) Saturday night. The trio of Gee McGhee (Baton Rouge, La.), Z. Mason (Nashville, Tenn.) and Farad Cobb (West Palm Beach, Fla.) combined for 50 points to pace the Chattanooga triumph.
McGhee and Mason had 17 apiece, while Cobb added 16. Raijon Kelly led Samford with a game-high 27 points.
UTC led by eight, 69-61, on a McGhee layup with 4:48 left. From there, it withstood a strong Samford surge. Kelly scored five straight to close the lead to three, 69-66, with 3:43 left.
Cobb made the second of two free throws to make it a two possession game again, 70-66, at 3:17. Tim Williams and Kelly sandwiched a Mason score to cut it a two-point contest twice, the latter making in 72-70 Chattanooga's way.
Ronrico White's (Knoxville, Tenn.) three-pointer with 59 seconds remaining was off the mark, but McGhee was on the spot with the offensive board and another 35 seconds of clock. His runner in the lane just rolled out and the rebound went out of bounds to Samford with less than 25 seconds to go.
UTC got its stop as Clide Geffrard, Jr.'s three rimmed out. Cobb stepped out of bounds grabbing the rebound to give the Bulldogs the ball with 7.3 to play. Kelly's three-pointer was off and the long rebound came out to White streaking into the frontcourt. His two free throws with 0.5 left provided the 74-70 final margin.
White had a season-high six assists for the Mocs. Martynas Bareika (Kedainiai, Lithuania) had a great night off the bench with nine points to go with career highs of eight rebounds and four assists. Williams chipped in 18 points and six rebounds for Samford.
Chattanooga dominated the boards with a 30-17 advantage. It allowed Samford a mere two offensive rebounds.
UTC shot a season-best 57.8 percent from the field making 26 of 45 shots. That included nine of 17 from three-point range, 52.9 percent, which is also a season-high shooting percentage. The touch trifecta hit tonight as yet another season mark was set at 72.2 percent (13-18) from the free throw line.
It was needed as Samford had its stroke as well. The home team hit 50 percent (24-48) from the floor and 42.9 percent (9-21) from beyond the arc.
It was a white hot start for the visitors from the Scenic City. The Mocs hit their first seven offerings and 11 of the initial 12 shots. That led to a 16-point cushion, 22-6, in the first five-plus minutes of the contest. Down 26-11, Kelly shot his team back in it. He went on an 11-0 run to close the lead to four, 26-22.
The two teams dueled through the remainder of the half. The Bulldogs got as close as one at halftime, 39-38. Samford got an early lead in the second half on a Will Cook jumper, 42-40, at 18:10, but it was short-lived. It managed to lead the game for just over a minute total as UTC either led or the score was tied for 38:46.
The Mocs remain on the road for a trip to the low country. UTC travels to Charleston, S.C., to tackle The Citadel and College of Charleston starting Thursday with the Bulldogs.

- On transverse momentum event–by–event fluctuations in string hadronic models (1998)
- Transverse momentum event-by-event fluctuations are studied within the string-hadronic model of high energy nuclear collisions, LUCIAE. Data on non-statistical pT fluctuations in p+p interactions are reproduced. Fluctuations of similar magnitude are predicted for nucleus-nucleus collisions, in contradiction to the preliminary NA49 results. The introduction of a string clustering mechanism (Firecracker Model) leads to a further, significant increase of pT fluctuations for nucleus-nucleus collisions. Secondary hadronic interactions, as implemented in LUCIAE, cause only a small reduction of pT fluctuations.

Country music star Randy Travis is scheduled to appear in a North Texas court, where prosecutors say he is expected to plead guilty to driving while intoxicated.
The hearing in state district court in Sherman would end a drunken driving case that began last summer when Travis was accused of crashing his car while driving naked.
Grayson County District Attorney Joe Brown says details of the plea agreement will be released Thursday following Travis' court appearance. The misdemeanor is punishable by up to two years in jail and a $4,000 fine. However, one of Travis' attorneys, John Nix, has said he expects Travis will be sentenced to probation.

text: Tarte Off the Cuff Blush Palette ($42.00 for 0.79 oz.) includes four blushes and one bronzer. It just sold out sometime between yesterday and today (last I checked, it was still available) online, so your only bet is to find it at a local store. Three of the five shades are part of the permanent range (Dazzled, Dollface, and Park Ave. Princess). Tarte's blushes are normally 0.20 oz. each, and these are 0.158 oz., which is close. The set contains $81 worth of blush and $14 worth of bronzer, plus a faux leather cuff with a bow on top, but it contains $95 worth of makeup in it. Overall, all five products are nicely pigmented, and though a few are a little powdery at times, they sit well on the skin and blend out beautifully. If you can find the set, it is worth checking out. Tarte's blushes, to be sure, though, do not wear the full 12-hours as promised, but they wear nicely at eight to nine hours, on average.

I bet, and I could be wrong here, that Nick Diaz is on marijuana. Which of these statements about fighters is more believable?
A tiger never loses sleep over the opinion of sheep.
What a f/n idiot.Hell no, Im not guaranteeing anything, Diaz said of passing his impending drug test. I can tell you I did a little better than the last time. So if I dont pass the test, Im sorry.
Goodbye Mr. Burton
All in the reflexes
Anderson Silva 5: TRT USERS 0 Hendo - Forrest - Nate - Chael... twice
Man Dana is gonna be so screwed if Diaz wins.....the most hated champ since Jon Jones....
Scarface: Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, you're cool, and fuck you, I'm out!
"I don't call the fighting in my films 'violent', I call it 'action'. An action film borders between fantasy and reality. If I were to be completely realistic in my films, you would call me a violent, bloody man. I would simply destroy my opponent by tearing his guts out. I wouldn't do it so artistically." ~Bruce Lee
How can people say Nick Diaz is hated? On the UG he's probably the most beloved fighter with the most vocal fan base...I mean hello! Has anyone ever heard ME speak about Diaz? That guy is like my 2nd man crush after Shogun...ah that smile...ahem...

Rink Specialists to build outdoor rink for Walleye WinterfestWritten by Staff Reports | | firstname.lastname@example.com
A North Carolina-based company that specializes in specialty hockey rinks will build the temporary outdoor ice rink for Winterfest at Fifth Third Field, the Toledo Walleye announced.
The company has been building specialty rinks for 14 years, including Comerica Park's Hockeytown Winter Festival last December, the Pittsburgh Penguins Community Rink, Frozen Fenway and Frozen Fenway 3.
"We're excited to bring outdoor hockey to Toledo, Ohio and the ECHL for the very first time," said Rink Specialists owner and vice president Rich Cubin in a news release. "Toledo is the #1 Minor League sports market in America and a perfect fit for our next outdoor hockey production."
Although the partnership was only just officially announced, Walleye Special Events Manager Mike Keedy said the team has been working with Rink Specialists for about two years to develop the Winterfest event, which will be held Dec. 26-Jan. 4 and presented by ProMedica.
"We have visited several outdoor hockey productions in the past three years, including events produced by Rink Specialists," Keedy said in the release. "Their reputation, professionalism and overall event performance gave us the confidence to proceed as our rink partner for Walleye Winterfest this coming December."
The regulation-size (200 feet long by 100 feet wide) outdoor rink is expected to take three weeks to build. It will stretch from first base to third base with the two goals placed at opposing bases.
Fans will be able to watch the building of the outdoor rink live on www.toledowalleye.com.
The first step will be to strip the infield and outfield turf, according to the release. Then Rink Specialists will start by putting down a special flooring to protect the playing field. Next a layer of foam board and another layer of protective flooring will be added before the playing surface is laid. A 430-ton chiller system will be put outside the rink to keep the ice frozen during the 10-day event. The final step will be to put up the dasher boards and paint the ice.
Tickets are currently available for all Walleye and Mud Hens game plan holders. Individual ticket sales will be available at a later date. For more information, call 419-725-WALL or visit www.toledowalleye.com.

An airport in our area will have its tower remain open despite the FAA's plans to close its doors, but it's not Easterwood Airport at Texas A&M.
As reported by the Conroe Courier, Montgomery County commissioners and the Conroe Industrial Development Corporation will share funding of the tower at Lone Star Executive Airport in Conroe. That was among the 149 towers nationwide set to close starting next month because of mandated sequester cuts.
Six months of an open tower will reportedly cost in the neighborhood of $300,000 at Lone Star.
Easterwood's tower remains on the chopping block for April, with questions of the future of the airport's many operations in sort of a holding pattern as a result.
A number of local government officials who say there really haven't been any talks about money from the community being used to keep the tower going at what would probably be a cost of three-quarters-of-a-million dollars a year.
Texas A&M officials say they have discussed a number of options for the Easterwood tower's future, but adds that outside involvement in the university's airport can be challenging.

This premium bag is a totally new concept, combining the assets of the Combibag and Quiverbag. It is made from extra tough material to withstand the countless miles of travelling around the world.
The bag has a removable custom-padding inlay that encloses boards for maximum protection. The inlay can be removed to save weight. The inside is divided into one big compartment, a smaller fin/screw pocket integrated in the top cover and a removable accessory bag. A plastic plate reinforcement at the nose and tail gives extra protection to these sensitive areas. The front handle can be opened to attach the bag to e.g. an airport trolley.
The Single Boardbag has a new outline that is specifically fitted to the different shapes of our boards. New in 2015 are the Nugget and the CSC Single Board Bag for our new surfboard shapes. All Single Surf Board Bags have an extension buckle in the back to also fit in boards with mounted fins. On the inside the bag features an extra fin pocket.

High school football teams will put their skills players to the test on June 29 at Fort Dorchester High School.
The Patriots will host their fourth annual Air it Out seven-on-seven passing tournament June 29. This year 20 teams from multiple divisions will participate in the tournament, which is designed to help teams develop their skills players prior to the opening of summer practice.
"We will have teams from public and private schools that play in divisions 4-A, 3-A and 2-A," Fort Dorchester coach Steve LaPrad said. "Most will be local teams but we do have some coming from other parts of the state. It's basically an opportunity for schools to give their guys a good workout."
This year the competition has a new sponsor, Seattle Seahawks corner back Byron Maxwell. LaPrad says having his former player as a sponsor helps keep the registration costs down which in turn makes the tournament more appealing.
"This is a fundraiser for the football program but we try to keep our entry fee lower than most passing camps," LaPrad said. "Also we let teams bring as many players as they want at no extra cost so if they want to use both their experienced players and some of their younger kids they can."
The tournament is open to the public at no charge so it provides football fans a glimpse into which local teams might feature a dangerous passing attack in the fall. A concession stand will be open.
Beginning at 10 a.m., each team will participate in four to five seven-on-seven scrimmages during which they will receive points for each touchdown pass, conversion pass, interception and defensive stop they make. Midway through the tournament, teams will be divided into two, single-elimination divisions according to record. The final for each division is expected to begin around 3 p.m.
After skipping last year's tournament, Summerville will return to play this summer. Ashley Ridge and Fort Dorchester typically field two teams in the competition. In addition to other teams from the Charleston tri-county area, teams from Sumter, Bluffton and South Florence will compete.
Last year Fort Dorchester handed Brookland-Cayce a 33-0 loss in the finals to claim the Division 1 championship for the tournament. Hanahan beat Bishop England 33-13 in the Division 2 championship.
Division winners from previous years include South Florence, Ashley Ridge and Bishop England.

Aiken Standard continues its November general election coverage today with breakdowns of the Aiken County treasurer and sheriff races, as well as a profile of Second Circuit Solicitor J. Strom Thurmond Jr.
The race for treasurer, in particular, has been a turbulent one since May when, along with hundreds of other people seeking elected office statewide, the four women who filed to run for the position were kicked off the primary ballot.
The next option for the four Sonya Spray, Debra Folk, Robin Saylor and Angela Gunter was to gather enough signatures from registered voters across the county to run as petition candidates. None collected enough signatures.
So, the only available option left to them and the rest who were decertified yet could not or did not complete a petition is to run as a write-in candidate.
As a result, voters will see a blank field under the title of County Treasurer on the electronic ballot in November. In order to enter the candidate of their choice, voters must tap with their finger write-in. A standard QWERTY keyboard will appear on the screen, and the voter will type in the name of the person they want to take the seat.
Joining Spray, Folk, Saylor and Gunter as write-in candidates for treasurer are Melissa Oremus, John Cagle, Ed Smith and Jason Goings.
The Aiken County Treasurer serves a four-year term contiguous with the fiscal year. The winner of the election will take office in July 2013.
Aiken County Sheriff incumbent Michael Hunt faces opposition from write-in candidate Jim Vause.
Vause was also decertified from the primary.
A person running for sheriff must meet several specific qualifications, including having at least a high school degree and serving a minimum number of years based on experience as a certified law enforcement officer.
Vause is a 25-year veteran with the U.S. Army and a 35-year veteran of law enforcement.
Hunts name will appear on the electronic ballot; Vauses will not. To vote for Vause, a person must tap write-in under the title Sheriff and type in his name.
The Sheriff serves a four-year term.
Solicitor Thurmond Jr. was first elected in 2008 after the retirement of former Solicitor Barbara Morgan. A solicitor serves a four-year term.
The general election is Nov. 6.

The WGFD Fishing Guide is now available online, as both an interactive publication and a clickable map. Be sure to check a copy of the current Wyoming Fishing Regulations for stream restrictions before fishing.
A Walk-in Area (WIA) is a tract of private land or inaccessible public land on which the Wyoming Game and Fish Department has leased rights for public fishing enjoyment. Public access to a Walk-in Area is limited to fishing only during the time period and only for the specific species agreed upon by the landowner and the Department.
The Wyoming Game and Fish Department currently maintains ten fish hatcheries and rearing stations.
Wyoming Game & Fish Fishing Regulation Brochure
Fisheries and hatcheries crews across the state compile a newsletter for their locality, providing valuable information regarding not only what they are doing, but also providing information on local fishing hot spots and conditions.
The 2003 Wyoming Legislature approved the creation of an annual Wyoming Free Fishing Day, to be designated by the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission, as part of the National Fishing and Boating Week.

"Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall." -William Shakespeare
If you hold the primary race for South Carolina's first congressional district up to your ear, I think you can hear God.
Well, at least you can hear a lot of talk about God. First, there was former governor Mark Sanford's television ad in which he mentioned having made mistakes and learning about forgiveness and the God of second chances.
Then former Charleston County Council Member Curtis Bostic made a surprise second place finish in last week's primary. Celebrating making it into a runoff with Sanford, Bostic said: ""I attribute our success to the grace of God. I believe that the implement that he used was common-sense conservative Americans that were looking for a new direction." Maybe the sequester is far-reaching after all, but now when God "hath loosed the faithful lightning of His terrible swift sword," He can only muster up 13 percent of Republicans and a second place finish?
South Carolina voters generally like to have people in public office who believe in and, quite possibly, feel accountable to God. Both Republican candidates have been open about their personal faith.
However, both candidates need to resist the temptation to rush to the pulpit and out God-speak the other.
In the rush of a short primary and subsequent short runoff, they mustn't lose sight of the fact that they are in the first congressional race that will set the stage for a nationwide battle for control of the United States House of Representatives. That battle has the complete attention of the president of the United States, when he's not golfing, and that of the Democrat's national machine.
As the stage is set for the 2014 nationwide battle for control of the U.S. House, Republicans are just one Aikin-like gaffe away from giving the Democrats the fodder they are looking for on a national scale.
Todd Aikin, for those who have forgotten, was the Republican senate candidate in Missouri who blew certain victory over a struggling incumbent Democrat by making his "legitimate rape" comment.
The Democratic election machine used that statement to negatively brand all Republicans in all races.
If Sanford wins, the national Democratic Party machine will be handed ready-made fodder. Bostic already used it in a statement the day after the primary.
First congressional district voters now must weigh the possibility of giving Democrats another national branding opportunity if Sanford wins this runoff. Bostic, on the other hand, would do well to limit references to God to his personal walk of faith and resist self-anointing statements similar to the words to the "Battle Hymn of the Republic."
The way to win this primary and the general election is to stick to the message of taking a sword to the runaway spending and debt that threaten to make insolvent our one nation under God.
And God help the candidate who strays from that message.
