Nov 01 18:26:45 trying to appeal to women, maybe. Nov 01 18:26:50 small fingers. Nov 01 18:26:52 small purses. Nov 01 18:26:56 that sort of thing. Nov 01 18:27:04 women prefer larger phones Nov 01 18:27:37 Palm was not intouch with trends Nov 01 18:28:00 everyone moving to all touchscreen yet they made a phone with a keyboard Nov 01 18:28:19 yep Nov 01 18:28:25 opal would have been awesome. Nov 01 18:59:01 There's nothing wrong with the Veer! I actually love it :) Nov 01 18:59:23 It's still my daily driver :) Nov 01 19:00:12 I have some Pre3's laying around too and might upgrade sometime since my Veer gets sluggish (I guess memory chips are wearing out). Recently doctored but no improvement Nov 01 19:01:06 The headphone adapter is the only thing I don't like about it. They could have found place for a proper jack or at least 2,5mm one when they would go for MicroSIM instead of regular SIM but OK Nov 01 19:03:27 Just the proprietary connector is not very good. I'd prefer a microUSB like on the Pre3 but well.... Anyway use Touchstone and BT headset so it doesn't bother me ;) Nov 01 19:35:04 not sure how you manage that Nov 01 19:35:28 i couldn't even use a pre 3 today. lacking way too many things **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Nov 02 02:59:57 2013
