The Era of the PDA was completely different and IMHO superior era to today's hyperconnected smartphones.
Yes, today's iPhones and Android devices do much much more, but the devices of older days were much more polished, to the point and streamlined.
iPhone is a great evolution of Palm hardware and design philosophy, but the gamification kills most applications, and oh, the notifications too. Glad that most of the useless notifications are turned off, so I can get some battery life and my attention back.
- atdrummond 3y agoI completely agree. I’ve done quite a bit to get my phone experience to a useful level but it’s required a level of customization and careful use to create an experience that simply existed properly, out of the box, with the purposeful PDA operating systems of the 90s.
