*Must-have thread in every forum! Saw Orincarnia's in CS, and decided to put something similar here.* :D

You know you're addicted with palm if you think that windows could learn a thing or two from Zlauncher...

You got butterflies in your stomach when you realized ClieSource was making a PalmOne forum, just when you were thinking about getting a Tungsten E.

Yo know you're obsessed if you feel insulted when someone calls your palm a PPC, then explain for hours why it's better, even though that person couldn't care less.

You bury your broken palms

You give your palm a memory card for its birthday

You know when you're obsessed with Palm if...
...you start replacing you natural handwriting with Graffiti when you are writing a letter
...you start tapping the menu in a restaurant and get angry because of the fact that the dropdown-menu doesn't seem to work
...you can only talk to your wife through BlueChat because 'you can be so much more expressive that way'

Sounds familiar to anyone?? ;)

YiP,

Great one Omni!!

When you have double sided color printouts of Palm's .PDF product sheets hanging on your cubicle wall. :o

When you have the Palm literature from Office Depot on laid out on your file cabinet like magazines at the Dr.'s office. :o

When everyone in the office comes to you with questions about PDAs.

You know you're obsessed with palm when you:

Actually carry around three different PDA's and try to convince people that there is a reason to carry all three of them (T665 and a T|3 [transitioning devices] and a Kyocera 7135 [gotta have your phone, and you don't use it as your PDA because it won't do everything your "production" device will do])

and re: the tapping your cell phone with a stylus.... well.... I can, just not in cell phone mode (freakin' Kyocera!)

Oh yeah... and the fact that I still own 8 PDA's with one on the way... (Pilot 1000, Palm III, Palm Vx, Sony T-615, (2) Sony T-665's, Palm T|3, Kyocera 7135) (neeeeed my Zodiac!)

and the fact that I can't shut up about the devices so I helped start a Palm group so that I could just yack about them to a bunch of people who actually would listen.

help me

You take your Palm with you to read ebooks or isilo web clippings while sitting on the "throne" :D

(this falls into the category of ...more information than you want to know!)

... when you rather watch a movie in Kinoma than on your big screen tv.

... people ask you if you are ok, when they see you without your Palm in your hand.

... you have a Travel charger next to your couch, your bed, your stove (need those recipes handy), your desk, your comfy chair...

... you stop talking to your coworker when he switches from a Visor to an Axim.

... you go out for dinner with your friends and spend the entire 2 hours showing them all the cool stuff your new T3 can do.

01-05-2004, 10:52 AM
... you're surfing the Web and reading mails on the T3 when you have this P4 computer with 19" screen that's used only as a Bluetooth gateway for the T3! :p

...when you take over for the salesperson in Staples in explaining the different PDAs, their features, uses and show them what you have on your Zire 71 and give a "mini" lesson in the store.

When you go ask the salesperson about a T3 expecting that he will get something wrong and then correct him :D.

When seemingly EVERYONE at your place of business knows you as "Mr. Palm Pilot" (Especially, Sr. Management types)
Also...
You know you are obsessed when you will turn around and drive home from work (and be late) because you forgot your Palm, even if you do have your BlackBerry with you as a backup...

i thought i was the only one that taps his phone and laptop screen. the first time i started doing it i was getting so pissed cuz i couldnt get the phone to select the item hahaha, my t616 was probably wondering what i was doing....did i just give my t616 credit for having thoughts....gez anywho on a short side note, i got a motorola v400 (i work for cingular) and i ended up switching back to the 616 cuz of the bluetooth and my t3.
