Do you think Apple will try and get back into the PDA market?

They previously claimed that they weren't going to make a smartphone., but they finally did. If they came out with a PDA that had iPod functionality, thousands of people everywhere would collectively soil themselves, most likely.

I doubt it, PDA's are dead. It's all about smartphones now.

Yes its called the IPhone... close as we are going to get for a bit I think.

Isn't the iPod already sort of a PDA? It has a planner, calendar, clock, stopwatch, notes, etc..

Dear Lord, I hope Apple doesn't stick their face in anymore business.

Nowdays no one wants a PDA. Why would someone want to carry around a PDA and a phone when there are so many devices that are both?

I wish they hadn't said that you can't write your own apps for the iPhone.

I hate carrying a phone, I would prefer a stand alone PDA.

Ya, the PDA is dead in my opinion as well.

Principal Skinner [speaking at an assembly]: Children, the times they are a-becoming quite different. Test scores are at an all-time low, so I've come up with these academic alerts. [hold stack of cards] You will receive one as soon as your grades start to slip in any subject. This way your parents won't have to wait until report card time to punish you.
Martin: How innovative. I like it!
Kearney: Hey Dolph, take a memo on your Newton: beat up Martin.
[Dolph writes "Beat up Martin" which the Newton translates as "Eat up Martha"]
Bah! [throws Newton]
Martin: [being bonked on the head with the Newton] Ow!
