Things are always more complicated than they should be.
Shiny has been acquired. I went with the Palm TX, because I really couldn't justify the need for the LifeDrive. Really, this TX is fabulous, and all I really need or want.
It is now also syncing w/ iCal, AddressBook, and SOHO Notes. Due to my own stupidity, it took me a lot longer than it should have. Tomorrow, I'm going to try to convince it to install a couple legacy apps that I (heart) dearly, plus <insert ominous music here> SmartList To Go.
We'll see how it goes.
Tomorrow, I will also try to convince my network that the TX is indeed allowed to use the wireless network, and also see if I can enable Bluetooth synching, because the business end of the USB cable looks scary (flimsy) as hell. It does have a cute little button on it though.
But, that's all the tech hassles I can take for one day.

I love my Palm T|X
I bought mine in 12/2005. It is very cool. I was able to sync it up with some of my legacy applications with no problem.
I bought a wireless keyboard for it recently. Last year, demo-ed Verichat and ended up buying it because it was cool to connect to Yahoo IM and chat with friends on it. However, it was much better when I bought the wireless keyboard. I also downloaded a software package (free, of course) that allowed me to use SSH to connect to the university’s UNIX system. That was pretty awesome.
It is amazing how that little device has progressed over the years. I am trying to wean myself off of the M130 and use the T|X more.
When making the decision, I thought the LifeDrive was more than I could ever need. The most fabulous thing about the T|X is that the stuff that is in memory won’t get totally wiped if the device accidently resets itself. Oh, talk about a completely pissed off person when the M130 would do that.
Back to the work grind – actually, wrapping that up to do some studying.
