I just noticed that almost every other website has mentioned these rumors, but not PalmInfoCenter.com. They suspiciously did not say anything right before Palm released the Tungsten C and Zire 71 because they had the full article (and full knowledge) the day (and I mean the day) they were released... actually I saw the article at 12:03 am the day it came out officially.
Anyone else think that this is a bit curious?

Palminfocenter doesn't want to put out rumors because they don't want to violate either sony or palm. Remember when they put up details of the NX series? SONY quickly asked them to remove all details as well as photographs.
Notice nothing was taken away from the forum posts about the TC and Zire, just I guess Palminfocenter was not allowed to post any news articles about it.

I am a nobody and got my hands on the new Zire the day before it was 'officially' released. Staples was preparing the display and let me use it all I wanted.

Yeah, you have a point. I know that they stick by those very strongly and I am sure that the advertising money to keep the NDA's is well worth... anyhow, who know? Maybe, Sony promised them the exclusive when it comes out and they are testing it even as we speak. LOL :D

It's not just caution on their part... count the messages-per-day here, a play devoted to a mere quarter or so of Palm sales, compared to there, a place dedicated to all of 'em.
I used to hang out there. But there's a rabid PPC zealot who hijaaks pretty much every thread and reduced the signal-to-noise ratio to where it was no longer worth my effort.

TechnoCat, that's too bad. I actually think I know who you're referring to. Would it be SKA? SKA typically does what you mentioned. It's really embarrassing to read through his/her posts. SKA has no shame (and apparently about as much intelligence). I don't like to insult people, but I think that anyone who has read SKA's interaction could come to the same conclusion.

That's the one... Ska/BlueAnon/blue-something else; the cretin has quite a few aliases apparently, all for the one personalilty.
Meanwhile my cat has a single alias for multiple personalities.

Usually news like this is released in one lump Quickie sum along with the rest of the minor news.
For updated news, the forums are really the place to look at. Ska is dying off. It's safe to come back, now.
