I wonder how Jeff from 2007 is doing these days.

To be fair to Jeff, early touch screens fucking sucked ass. It wasn’t until capacitive touch screens came on the scene that they became usable, and then multi-touch was a huge step forward too.

Had no trouble with my Palm and Treo - they worked fine (with a stylus of course, but you could also use your finger for touches and swipes).

Capacitive was a huge improvement though, I wouldn’t want to go back. Though I do want my Treo keyboard, that thing was amazing.

I wanted a palm pilot soooo badly back in the day, but I was basically just a kid, and my parents couldn’t understand what I would want with a PDA as they were called back then!
