Thin client palmtoppin’, oh yeah
I had an interesting experience yesterday when my company laptop bricked up on the way into the office. I went immediately to blackberry not just to scan my email (which I usually do when I’m not at a desk), but also for everything else. And by “everything else” I mean scheduling meetings, viewing and commenting on powerpoints, looking things up on the web,and (now) even writing this blog post.
while I missed the pc for a few things that are more efficient with that form factor (multiwindow activities, typing fast, mousing) and I have a few mail server folders to optimize for getting stuff out of my inbox once processed a la GTD, overall I’m pretty pleased by how well synced up the RIM curve let’s me be.

Hey Greg — I often go hours at a time on only blackberry. It can definitely be done (unless you need to edit a big document or contract or something). Turning off the bluetooth helps the battery life a lot (at least on the 8800). I don’t know how I ever lived with a crappy Treo (6 of them to be precise).
