Make Your Tungsten T3 Palm a Monster Machine (20 Jul 2004)
Recently, my wife and I bought a pair of Palm Tungsten T3 handheld computers.

We've all had the experience of discovering what we bought was obsolete less than a week after buying it, but I was to learn overnight that not only was my particular product obsolete, but handhelds in general were obsolete.

The day our Palms arrived in the mail, Sony pulled out of the palm race, and immediately the press rushed out a series of articles declaring the whole market for such devices to be dead, dead, dead. (I think these were the exact same articles they'd published on the death of the Internet three years ago and the death of game machines 15 years ago. The reporters just did a universal replace on the product name.)
