I can remember the first time I realized that there wasn't a whole lot of new WM hardware out there that really got my heart pounding first thing in the morning. I was worried that I had lost my sense of excitement.
What I've realized, however, is that my definition of "excitement" has evolved. In 2000, it revolved around having the newest, clearest, connected-est, etc. device available. Then, it revolved around having the killingest applications.
Now, I get truly excited when my WM device makes my life easier and more productive in real, demonstrable ways, not just when it's fun to use. When I can work from literally anywhere because I'm as connected as when sitting at my desk. When my location is completely transparent. When I can take and use files I need without a laptop. When I can connect my laptop to the Internet via my WM phone (using Internet sharing) when I need to.
When it makes my life simpler, THAT excites me.
