I know Lynn Fox, I went to school with Lynn Fox and you, Owen Thomas, are no Lynn Fox.

]]> <![CDATA[Palm poaches another Apple executive]]> @Dweezil: The Calacanis thing was an experiment in "theme days". It didn't really go so well, what with the spelling and all. Maybe next Wednesday I'll try something else.

@QADude: Totally! I couldn't imagine telling my friends that my new job is at Palm without blushing in embarrasment.

]]> <![CDATA[Palm poaches another Apple executive]]> @matto: I was thinking something along those lines, too. Talk about a "career limiting decision".

I was interviewed by them a while back but I declined because Palm is a loser company. My guess is they want to be bought by someone, as they're just dying.

]]> <![CDATA[Palm poaches another Apple executive]]> They could poach the entire Apple org chart and I don't think they could revive this company. Like so many others, they lost their way when they got obsessed with "keeping up with" Microsoft. they failed to do that (it's a rigged game) and lost the low end to a dozen other companies.

Long uphill battle for them to be a cell phone player and not too many people are interested in a separate PDA (is that term still in use?) any more.

But I'm not sure where Apple goes from here either. They make yuppie computers and cell phones. What's next? A cute little motor scooter with iPod socket and aluminum and white styling? Glow in the dark seekers that pulse to the beat of whatever you are listening to? Metallic tint contact lenses? Who cares?

Mike Bell, the dee-dee-dee surfer dude who always seems to be caught off guard....

...and now they've got the PR lady.

Countdown to Apple buying Palm...20 months.
