Default Guess Who Is Interviewed This Month?

http://www.pdapro.co.uk/insideout.htm

Each month, Kevin Tea publishes interviews with people who are influencial in the PDA world on his PDAPro Web site. He's had some good ones in the past, but for November, he has outdone himself. I say that for two reasons: First, it's his longest, most in-depth interview to date. Second, the subject of the interview is none other than...

Jason Dunn!

In the interview, Jason answers questions like:

� Have you ever owned a Palm?
� What are the highs and lows of running such a high profile site?
� How do you think the [Pocket PC] sector is going to progress over the next 12 months?
� What is on your personal wish list for the Pocket PC market?

Of course, my favorite part of the interview is when Jason talks about what an outstanding group of contributing editors he has . It is truly an honour that Jason was selected for the article. You owe it to yourself to read it and learn a bit more about what a hardworking visionary Jason is.

Pretty cool interview. It's always nice to find out more about people you interact with in a somewhat impersonal way such as online.

It also brings home the fact that we (me) should take a bit more time to think about how we critisize people like Jason who care so much about what they are doing, and take their responsability to their readers very seriously.

So.......if you checked with Microsoft to see if a clamshell device would be acceptable as a Pocket PC, how long do you think it will be before we see one?

Realistically? 12-18 months. I think the Pocket PC needs to make more inroads against Palm before the OEMs will feel secure enough to start experimenting...

Well it's good to know they can do it. A clamshell design easily doubles the real estate and only thickens the device slightly.

If the Sony clamshell devices were running Pocket PC, who would give a hoot what Dell was doing.
