Pete S. The Wi-Fi Alliance has a whole test plan , that’s based on each type of WiFi, from 802.11b on up. Most of these tests are automated now but back when I did them, they were still done by hand. Basically an engineer from the company for the device would spend the day with me, and we’d go through, testing throughout, using different security types, and testing against “reference” products in the test bed. We’d test ad how mode, we checked, with traces, to make sure the packets were showing all the right stuff, like data rates available.. just a bunch of different things. It was a cool gig, and I met a lot of people that way. I was actually able to jump over to a Start up, called Airgo Networks, and they were doing MIMO, which ended up being the basis for 802.11N, and I was able to ride that ship all the way until we got bought up by Qualcomm in 2006, and I was able to be an engineer at Qualcomm for a few years. Pretty awesome

I thought the same at the time too. It’s almost like you don’t even need a desktop/laptop. Almost.

Indeed, PDA succeed when combining with a phone, then become the smartphone

@William S I have high end laptop and desktop, definitely tablets can't hold a candle to them. Still, many people I know use PCs for basic purposes; browsing, media consumption, communications, etc., and probably would be just fine with a tablet and/or smartphone.

what the fuck is a bixby? is that bilbo's snazzy cousin?

That would be awesome but no. Yet another digital assistant from Samsung, with a dedicated button on the Note 8 and a couple other Samsung phones. The button is not easily reprogrammed, so if you prefer Google, good luck...

The button can be reprogrammed using bxActions, which has improved considerably since it first came out. I have mine set to open up Google Assistant (hold), ringer/mute switch (press), last app (double-press when unlocked), and play-pause (double-press when locked). It even lets you remap the volume buttons though I haven't felt like doing that. With a solitaire app and bxActions you can actually have a dedicated solitaire key on your Samsung if you wanted haha

Bixby can BURN IN HELL!

I have Samsung Galaxy Note 8, and I HATE, HATE with PASSION that... thing. On top of that, Samsung goes out of their way to patch it, so that apps that try to remap that cancerous feature into something the USER WANTS, will not work. Why is it that, when I buy something, it is such a novel concept to NOT add features that make me want to trash the damn thing?

Jason me too, I also had the Compaq ipaq pocket PC 3650 that I remember buying in August of 2000. I used it some during my last year of highschool in 2001 to 2002. I think by mid 2002, I sold it and got a new hp laptop.

Haha, same here

Oh yeah sorry about that, mid 2000s me was a bit less scrupulous with strangers credit card info than I maybe should've been I guess. Eh, we can laugh about it now though right? ❤

Had someone hack my Microsoft account and purchase a bunch of games with my Visa on the account itself, Visa reversed the charges and all the games were kept. Yep definitely some silver linings.

keplerk Yes this exactly model

I don't know if you could call it a mid-range device exactly but such things absolutely existed back then such as this: phonedb.net/index.php?m=device&id=285&c=samsung_sch-i730 The SCH-i730 which was a business class PDAphone/smartphone also made back in 2005, it has considerably better specs than this pda and the only reason it didn't have a camera as well is because businesses at the time didn't like the idea of people wandering around everywhere with cameras, some preproduction i730s were even shown with a built-in 1.3-megapixel camera, so they fully intended to put one in it but at some point late in the design phase decided to just put a cover over that spot instead.

The latest Dell Precision laptops even have such plastic cards.

Unfortunately I think lost my fake sd card and cf card for my dell axim 51v (which can be seen in the video lmao) but I still have them all for both of mine ipaq hx4700 and it's disappointing brother ipaq 214. Somebody stole the dummy card from my first budget pda I bought the ipaq rz1710 because they though it was real, lmao.

I still have the one I bought for my Palm PDA. I need a Horders intervention.

Is that a sarcasm?

@@bunnydexter7178 pretty likely. They required an external GPS antenna and it took 15-20 minutes (!) to get an initial GPS fix. You would sit in your car, stare at the screen and wonder whether the app had frozen, which it sometimes did. (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

Yah, we went from World ending Y2K to major jumps in everything.

James Rowe I know I figured that was possible but in 2005 I'm sure that would have been a pretty unique feature for the time.

Yeah can relate, my dad had one that he wrote software for and I remember playing around with it. btw, Cute profile pic :3

PrussianKamikaze I remember using a PDA device very similar to this that my older brother owned; it featured an animation software which, when I was 8, I thought that was the best thing ever. Thank you! ♥️

Same here! I remember lusting over these in Radio Shack. Oh, memories.

I remember having a PDA "back in the day"but for the life of me I cannot remember which one it was :(

Ikr? The friggin 3rd party hardware was insane with stuff like this. As a (very nerdy) kid I would flip through catalogs just to marvel at the insanity that was a mobile printer for a digital camera or a mouse for a palm pilot

Get out of here stalker

Oh yeah WM 2003se was great but in late 2000s less and less programs supported it fortunately you could flash either official or unofficial rom on most popular devices, which is exactly what I did on my hx4700. I never really flashed the official wm5 which run like crap anyway on that pda because of the flash chip they used (fast at reading, but slow at writing, so os would throttle cpu every now and then to catch up after you delete bunch of files). I just went straight for unoficial wm6 rom first in 2007 not long after I got the device and in following years I flashed lots of roms most were wm6.1 (which is the best winmo they ever made) I flashed wm6.5 too which sucks dick, as it tries to be like smartphones it was also the last version of wm before ms pulled plug on it. I even got a minimal debian work on hx4700 and I don't mean emulated one from windows mobile, the bootloader is replaced and it loads from an sd card and it freaking works I have that on my other hx4700 the original one I bought in 2007. On my other hx4700 I have my own wm6.1 rom that I made in 2013 and it kicks ass, it works fast and it looks really good also I removed many crappy built in programs to free space and bloat which I then used to put in the actual programs I use straight into rom, like resco explorer, pocket player, resco image viewer 6.1, pocket plus, wk task .. all of course preconfigured to the way I like it because I made registry tweaks, of course I made icons prettier too and the file type icons as well. I remember using youtubeplay as well, it worked pretty well, until youtube decided to update codecs and they did that like a zillion times, so now not even htc hd2 (another winmo device I have) youtube player works or the special addon for TCPMP, which was one of the best video players they made for pocket pc. Btw gogole did make an official youtube app for windows but it worked like crap unlike youtubeplay or tcpmp that played video smoothly the official app played them at choppy 10fps and it did the same on 1ghz htc hd2 which had the best youtube app I have ever seen on windows mobile. Also there was no way to make the video to fit the entire screen, I think google did this on purpose to make you want to get an android at the time when wm was still a thing supported by ms. The windows mobile had all sorts of games in addition to some already shown, it had worms age of empires (complete ports) and as well as many own original games that were way more fun than any of smartphone free games that are popular, except maybe some more advanced paid games such as worms and prince of Persia, but the problem are controls, Clint is complaining about the dpad and buttons but these are heck alot better than using the touch screen for everything.

It was early 2000s

Sadly long dead. I mean another-another crack haha

You are right. Technology, actually, does not give you happiness, it depends on your state of mind and level of satisfaction. There is an ancient Indian saying: "A person who is not satisfied with what he has, will not be satisfied even if given the entire universe"! The greed of human beings ...!

Yeezy westy Ha, thanks. I drank soooo much water.

Kenneth James I sooooo did. It was wonderful at the time...

So you are a dedicated whiskey drinker? And four beers did you up? Had ypu already been hitting the whiskey? Because the cool thing about beer is that is mostly water. You really have to be hitting it hard to get dehydrated. But mixing the two can really put you down.

@@metamorphicorder I can generally enjoy a few glasses of straight whiskey and it's a very mild, mellow buzz, but the carbonation in beer is what makes the alcohol hit your blood stream quickly and messes you up off a much smaller amount. In this case however, I was in a way mixing the two because the beer of choice was "Dragon's Milk" which is a delicious yet highly potent bourbon barrel beer. I greatly underestimated it's power lol. It was not a good day.

Stephanie Yung right?! Plus it included a compact flash slot and SD card. Here is a picture of mine: imgur.com/gallery/Cx4l2eF

Ive nerver turned on subs before thats great! Didnt realise he did that so much effort!

They didn't really become outdated because iPhone that appealed to typical dumb users because it's simplicity, but because everyone including MS copied the iPhone so now we are stuck with tasteless, because that's all what is on market now. Boring ass devices with no style that all look the same, both software and hardware perspective, too simplistic for me. I still use my beloved hx4700.
