Matthew writes: Samsung and Microsoft have announced a partnership to create an even suckier PDA.
“We’re taking what we learned with running a bloated operating systems on barely adequate hardware and removing much of the feature enabling hardware such as the color screen, hard buttons, sound capability, and slots. We’re also cutting extraneous RAM in half.”
When contacted for comment, a Palm spokesman seemed incredulous. “I don’t know what they’re thinking. Nobody does suck like we do. We’ve had the suck market locked down solid for nearly eight years. We can run our OS on processors that are 1/20th as fast as theirs with 1/32nd the memory. How can they hope to compete with that kind of suck? Don’t make us put these things in cereal boxes.”
