Then, everybody started carrying smartphones and the world changed, again. I have a box of historical electronic devices, none of which are Palm Pilots.  |
My wife split the difference between Palm Pilot and my Pocket PC and called them all "Pound Puppies". Only an idiot argues with his wife over something not life-and-death. Besides which MS eventually changed the name to "Windows Mobile" which was even less accurate than "Pound Puppy".
