ALEX: ... and if you want to add the iPhone to your Family Talk Plan, you have to purchase a Family Talk Plan just for the iPhone.

STEVE THE PAPERCLIP: Pardon me, there, Sport.

ALEX: Steve!

STEVE: Hallo.

ALEX: What brings you out here? Business or pleasure?

STEVE: Business, I'm afraid. We've heard you've recently taken over AT&T's technical support for the iPhone, and I'm here to ask you to stop.

ALEX: Stop?

STEVE: It's quite brilliant, I'll admit. you don't have a competing product on the market so you sabotage the iPhone by taking over our partner's technical support service.s Brilliance aside, though, I'm going to have to ask you to stop.

ALEX: I really don't think I can do that.

STEVE: We are prepared to give you an iPhone.

ALEX: I really think I can find a way to do that.

Actually, Palm now sells two models, one running Palm OS and one running Windows. The 680 and the 755 both run Palm OS.

Windows Mobile

I have a phone with Windows Mobile. In six months, it has crashed 4 times and erased all my contacts every time. To make it work again, I drop it from a six foot height. I highly recommend it. Of course, all MS computers have worked better with a good kicking.
