What did they say in a nutshell... They have really monotonous voices and it's verry boring to listen to..> LOL

[JAmerican]

They basically said that Palm OS looks old. Palm OS has not had a new version in such and such a time so its really not going anywhere. What you would expect an amateur who doesn't use the OS to say.

was it that evil woman bonnie chung?

[frenchiePIC]

No, but it was someone who obviously never took a speaking, broadcasting, or journalism class in his entire life. They like getting onto their soapboxes and preaching. I wonder who else did this with his podcast?

[JAmerican]

CNET sucks. OMG. They hire people who have never used technology in their lives. I bet I could replace Bonnie Chung and increase the number of visits to the PDA section in one day. LOL. My reviews would be straight to the point. I would not waste precious time talking about expansion when things that consumers cannot test or see need to be shown.

In Bonnie Chung's review of the LifeDrive, they covered up system crashes/resets! Didn't mention it but you could see it if looking closely.
