Pocket PC Passion's Dale Coffing Talks About Pocket PC 2003 On Tech TV

[Ed Hansberry]

Dale Coffing will be on Tech TV's "The ScreenSavers" on Tuesday, June 24.

"The plan is to be showing the latest hardware and accessories and there are a ton of them. Some of the items on the tap are the new Pocket PC Phones Editions i700 by Samsung and G1000 by Hitachi, the Socket bluetooth SD 802.11 card; Pharos iGPS Bluetooth combination receiver, CoPilot live Pocket PC 4, keeping my fingers crossed for the new EBCases leather case for the i700..... and of course a very special surprise. Don't miss the show!"

Hmmm.. special surprise? 8O

This should be interesting...especially since Leo just recently dumped Pocket PC and went back to PalmOS. And judging from some of his comments during the show, he thinks very little of the PPC in general.

Then again...he also dumped his PC..and went to a Mac. Leo's opinions change with the wind. I sometimes wonder if he has ADD or something. :roll:

They're engaged?

(Just kidding, guys!)

Good to see Dale on Tech TV, I've always felt they pushed palm more than ppc. What better person to push the platform than the guy who started my passion (don't know him but his was the first ppc site I went to).

Fresh Gear was the worst. Sumi Daas and Jim Louderback were so Pro-Palm, I wonder why they even bothered reviewing other devices. They even gave the original Sony Clie (PEG300) an editor's choice award...while every other major tech site gave it a unanimous thumbs down. :roll:

Han Choi is a BIG Pocket PC person though....

Actual tech on TechTV? This is a big break through for them since they launched the kinda-tech entertainment format last year. :roll:

Yeah, Han is fairly objective, so is Andrew Hahn. But I can't stand Bret Larson. He's a total Mac zealot and always bashes MS products.

Chris Perillo....uh yeah, he's loves Pocket PC. A little too much. :|

Doesn't matter anyway. TechTV is heading for bankruptcy. I doubt they'll still be on air by the end of this year. :byebye:

I cancelled my TechTV subscription a a few back. Between the disproportiate amount of Apple coverage, Brett Larson's constant XP bashing, and the fact that they got rid of Chris Pirillo (the only real personality on any of the shows), I just couldn't take it anymore. I think it's tragic too that the tech industry doesn't do commercials for the network - I have to suffer through these painful Canadian heritage commercials...bleh...

You could always listen to CBC 1 during the breaks. ukeface2:
