In some ways I agree. I like that Apple solved the problem that I have. I'm sure it's a great music player. But. Does it have an FM receiver? I was disappointed that the NEC &lt;a href=&quot;http://scriptingnews.userland.com/backissues/2002/05/28#adventuresWithSoftware&quot;&gt;palmtop&lt;/a&gt; does not. Why not make the device accessible only over TCP/IP, with &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.webdav.org/&quot;&gt;WebDAV&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.xmlrpc.com/&quot;&gt;something&lt;/a&gt; like &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.soapware.org/&quot;&gt;that&lt;/a&gt; as the synchronization protocol. Is the hardware prohibitively expensive? Does it add too much overhead? The perfect product would be one that didn't care if I used a Mac or PC. I'm tired of devices that only work on one machine or another, or require that I install software on my desktop to be able to connect to it. I like the idea of a palmtop that's optimized for personal stuff like music. I'm not interested, yet, in a palmtop for reading email or browsing the Web." created="Tue, 28 May 2002 20:15:46 GMT"/>

Someday when we design products on weblogs by thinking aloud and stating our wants, some company somewhere is going to make the product we want and make money doing it. Please read the above paragraph with that in mind. That is imho, the business model for weblogs. (Do I make money when someone makes a product I want? Yes, in the sense that instead of spending money for a product that is something like what I want, I spend the same amount of money and get exactly what I want.)" created="Tue, 28 May 2002 20:46:47 GMT"/>

			<outline text="Part One. Over the weekend, Robert Scoble, who now works at NEC, brought me one of their palmtop &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.neccomp.com/MobilePro/P300/&quot;&gt;computers&lt;/a&gt; to try out. I have one immediate application for it, I want to put MP3s on the computer and listen to them on my daily walk. I also like the idea of listening to audio books. The setup sounded ideal. When you dock the palmtop, a folder shows up on the desktop. Any files you copy into the folder are copied to the palmtop. This is called &lt;a href=&quot;http://support.neccomp.com/mobilepro/activesync35.asp&quot;&gt;ActiveSync&lt;/a&gt;. So this morning I plugged it all in. It started out pretty well. A dialog popped up. New Hardware Found. Do I want to search for the driver. OK. Inserted the CD. It found it. Excellent. Install. Restart. I looked all over the place for the folder. Nowhere to be found. Opened setup.exe on the CD. It wants to install Outlook. I don't want Outlook. Scoble says I have to install it. Grrr. OK. Midway through the install it says it can't find a file. Do I want to Cancel. No. Can't find the file. Do I want to Cancel. No. Can't find the file. Do I want to Cancel. Yes. The first two letters of the activation code, ironically, are FQ. I should have had a clue what was coming." created="Tue, 28 May 2002 17:04:18 GMT"/>
			<outline text="Part Two. Called Scoble. Got some good advice. Unplug the device. Restart the desktop machine. Follow the install instructions exactly. I did. Bingo. It works. So far. Fingers crossed. (It seems to matter that the device be unplugged at a certain point in the installation. The prompts don't say this.) Also, I did &lt;i&gt;not&lt;/i&gt; need Outlook. " created="Tue, 28 May 2002 17:29:53 GMT"/>
			<outline text="Postscript. Why did I think it would work if I did what the software told me to do? Because I was trained by the Macintosh where things like this just work." created="Tue, 28 May 2002 17:35:27 GMT"/>
			<outline text="Next step: Figuring out how to play music on the palmtop. Does WinAmp run there? How do I get apps onto the thing? Of course I want to know how I write apps for it too." created="Tue, 28 May 2002 17:37:43 GMT"/>
