There was a lot of brand new technology introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show at the opening of the year. Now is the time when that new technology has started to come out and become to be had to the public. There is finally word about the Palm Pre coming out almost immediately. The New York Times said yesterday that the phone would be coming out the first week of June. The phone, which has been hailed as the tool that may very well save Palm from the brink of ruin, has a new and ground-breaking operating system called WebOS. Palm has not produced a new operating system in countless years. Then there is one more mobile device gartering some attention: the fresh Acer Aspire One netbooks have new features like a multi-gesture touchpad (think iPhone like gestures for a laptop touchpad), a card reader that reads loads of different formats than just SD or Memory Stick Pro, and one of the biggest screens for a netbook. At just over 11 inches, the A0751h is starting to traverse into the ultra portable category where 12 inch laptops can sell for well more than $1,500. However the A0751h keeps its price at around $350 MSRP. With the launch of new technologies, it is becoming more and more challenging to draw the line at what is a computer, what is a mobile phone, and the difference between a netbook and a ultra portable laptop. Sure, when you look at a cell phone, you can see that it is a device that is subsidized by a cellular carrier, GSM phones have SIM cards. But, now there are netbooks that are being subsidized by cellular companies (that even require SIM cards for AT-T). Then there is a whole new category of MIDs (Mobile Internet Devices) that are handheld computers that are able to do most of the things that netbooks can do. I think that one day shortly, the computer and the cell phone will be one device. Kind of like how there are not as many people carrying around cameras any longer since their phones cameras have moderately good resolution (or in the case of the Samsung Memoir for T-Mobile, it has an 8 megapixel camera attached). I would not mind having a device that did it all camera, phone, computer. I already have a laptop I leave at home, a Palm Centro for my telephone calls, a netbook for taking to school and traveling, and a digital camera being able to have all of these devices in one place would be remarkable.
