Miscellaneous

Invisible app

I had just gotten the PalmVII and after hard-resetting twice, I noticed a strange app in the launcher. It is also interesting to note that I have the OS 2 and the OS 3 launcher. These apps appear below in the OS2 launcher, and not the other 3rd party launchers. (Actually, I think it was in the pick list for AppHack).


Easter eggs

A few PalmVII Easter eggs have been found. One allows you to open any URL, and change the size of your clipping history. The other known one shows you credits for the Palm VII team (Project Eleven). Further investigation reveals that four of the names have pictures attached to them. In fact, I wrote a PQA ("PQA Peek" - see link below) that lets you view these pictures without having to find the "sweet spot." I've also added eggs to my PQAs.... :) You can get more info about all Easter eggs here.


Access logs

I just noticed how PalmVIIs look in a web access log. Here's what I look like, for anyone who's interested...

genuity.ops.palm.net - - [15/Nov/1999:02:12:57 -0500] "GET /pqa/ne_pqa.htm HTTP/1.0" [intentional line break] 200 2013 "-" "Mozilla/2.0 (compatible; Elaine/1.0)"


Battery life

Since i got it, I don't believe I've had more than two weeks on a set of batteries. I"ve been keeping track of when I change them, I'll post that soon.


In the future...

  • More info on battery life.
  • Speed comparisons
  • The rest is up to you. :)
