The handspring VisorPhone does. It was an add-on card that cheaply added a phone to HandSpring-produced PalmOS PDAs. It was my first pdaphone.
The VisorPhone originally cost more than a cellphone. Thanks for proving my point.
I could sort of understand if one of those GamerGate "Men's Rights Activists" dudes were claiming that most government leaders and CEOs were women.
But that's not what happened here.
But why on Earth would a woman make such a bizarre claim?
That's not what happened here.
Have you been living under a rock?
Are you a rock?
So you are calling the above poster a liar? Nice.
Name and shame or you're a liar making shit up to make yourself seem more important. Put up or shut up is the name of the game, otherwise it's just FUD. Vague pronouncements might serve in government, but they don't suit here on Slashdot.
Yeah, that *shrug* is how we got where we are now with our government in general. No justice available from the justice system? *shrug*
You're assuming the goal of listening radio is simply to understand. For most people it most definitely isn't. There's nothing more fatiguing than trying to understand content through static in the background.
Yeah, there's nothing worse than when the radio reception is poor while you're digging ditches.
But it has only been a relative few years that smartphones have had screens bigger than about 3.5"
Yeah, you know why? Because they didn't have the horsepower to drive the resolution that users expected from a display at larger sizes. It's only recently that the hardware has become efficient enough to actually provide a larger display with the features users expect.
They could have simply added a phone and left everything else alone.
What makes you so sure that they could have done that in the same package and still got it out of the door for a price that anyone would pay?
We've spent centuries arguing nonsense, from how three is equal to one for large values of three
three is equal to one even for regular values of three if you're working on the Galois field of integers mod 2. 3=1 is one of those ideas so mad that only a mathematician could have invented it. Yet modular arithmetic is enormously powerful and turns out to have some quite stuning practical applications too.
Yay pedantry!
So every passenger would have to checks the driver's license, registration, insurance and inspection report before getting into a cab? That is why there are taxi licenses so the passenger can be sure that these checks have already been done.
Fucking communists ruining everything for everyone. Look it's simple the bad taxi drivers will just go out of business. So, if a tax driver murders you and turns your skin into a leather jacket, just vote with your wallet and use a different company next time. Then you'll see the invisible hand do its job.
Actually quite the opposite. As far as I know, this planet here is the only one in the existing universe that produced chlorophyll. Quite seriously, if aliens ever came to Earth, I wouldn't expect them to mutilate our cattle but rather steal our trees.
You have a rather odd concept of the looks and the space travels of Icelanders...
It's like the difference between having moral values and having a religion.
So if someone went and, say, cut a deep scar right across her face...
No child left behind.
In 1984, people also weren't always under observation by their telescreen. Actually, they almost never were. What made them "behave" was simply that they didn'T know when they would be.
So just not having a camera "trained on you" every second of your life doesn't make the total surveillance any less invasive. When you cannot tell whether you have privacy, you have none.
Then came the Treo... their smartphone. They reduced the size of the screen to 1/2 or even less of what it had been before, added chicklet-style keyboard ala Blackberry, and dropped the Graffiti written input.
Oh, you mean like the Tungsten C?
Now, finally, we have smartphones that match or best the Tungsten's color screen in size and resolution.
So I looked it up, and the highest-resolution Tungsten device was at 320 x 480 and now median phones are 720p, the display was only TFT and now phones are starting to be OLED, and the screen was 3.7" while modern phones are 4-5". The specs of the best Tungsten phone were beaten by feature phones some years ago.
We could have had that many years ago,
We did, and no, Palm's 3.7 inch display with almost no dots and also very few colors by modern standards was not comparable to a modern smartphone display. Not even a cheap one.
The hardest part of climbing the ladder of success is getting through the crowd at the bottom.
