    One thing I like about the iPhone is that there are actual music production tools available for it. I know a guy who uses his iPod touch to make beats while he rides the subway to work and sells them to rappers. I'm hoping this might open a gateway for the Palm to have some of those capabilities, as there are a lot of production tools available in the X Server environment.

    Does he use Thumbjam, by chance?

    If I had an iPhone, that's what I'd have. That looks like a fucking BLAST.

    This is a good demonstration to show that ALL smartphones are closer to a PC than people imagine. Even in the WinMo space, things are much more like a full-on computer than a feature phone.

    The dividing line is growing even thinner now that Intel is working on atom-based smartphone solutions.

    I am not sure what the program is, but I know that it's setup to emulate an MPC2000, which is freakin awesome.

    I'm willing to bet Openoffice would scream when combined with the 800Mhz overclock.
