So, essentially they're saying that no one, not even Apple, has got it
quite right yet...

You realize the "original Palm" is over a decade old, and modern Palms are
far more than "400% faster" than the original Palm Pilot, right?

My WinMo phone emulates an original IBM XT at about "300% faster" than the
speed of the original 8088-based PC. It hasn't exactly made the Wintel
cartel "history."

Um, no, it isn't.

A modern Palm runs rings around a Palm emulator.

So, in effect, you're saying your $500 iPhone can't perform many of the
tasks your $99 Palm did, so you need to run an emulator to correct the
shortcomings? Shocking...

My car had trouble with dirt in the gas clogging the fuel injection.

So, I bought an Ultra 5000 that doesn't let me put gas in the tank so the
engine can run. It sits in my driveway where the dealer's towtruck left it
and never suffers from clogged fuel injection any more.

Isn't that great?!!

How stupid......

iPhone doesn't let you put gas in the tank, either.....

But a few of the Palm programs i had were also unstable and often
crashed my Treo.
The beauty of the iPhone is that you don't have this problem

In Search of the Super Easy Super-Phone

computerworld.com — What users are clamoring for is a phone with a
beautiful screen and a brain-dead-simple user interface like the
iPhone, with the core business functionality and keyboard performance
of a BlackBerry and the high-quality camera of some of the LG phones.
We want GPS, 3G and great media management. Who will get there first?
Prediction: Apple.

Note Palm is history in July when iPhone is able to run all Palm apps
up to 400% faster than the orignal Palm with a bigger screen and an
improved interface. Even faster than Palm's latest and greatest.

That is nice since I like most people have Palm software laying in my
bookcase. I never got rid of it after getting rid of the Palm.

RIM, Palm grab iPhone market share
