Warning: This is a shameless plug for my employer. Today Palm launched the new Fall product line consisting of three new products. Products are developed like clockwork (more or less) at Palm; each Spring and Fall brings a new set of products and the development projects behind them. The software for the “Fall 03” stuff was actually wrapped up in July for the most part, so we're busy at work on “Spring 04”. As usual there is a fair amount of press coverage of the launch. Some of the online reviews I've read include these: Forbes.com: Palm's Fall Offensive Cnet.com:…
Watching TV this morning I saw that ESPN2 is 10 years old today — it launched on October 1, 1993. I'd point to something interesting on ESPN's web site, if they had anything.

More on the RSS headline viewer for Palm devices that I mentioned over the weekend. Today I tried it on my Tungsten C and it worked pretty well. A couple of minor bugs but overall a pretty nice package. They’ve also written a conduit (Windows only), so you don’t need an internet-capable device to use the software.
First look at an RSS headline viewer for Palm devices, able to read headlines either via HotSync or directly to the internet. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks promising. [Via stevenf]
Anand Lai Shimpi (founder and chief of AnandTech) has started a weblog (RSS Feed). Subscribed. AnandTech is a great resource for PC hardware reviews, especially for the do-it-yourself PC builders out there. (Which reminds me, I really need to build a new PC. Still getting some use out of my Celeron 300 system with Windows 98, but it's really pathetic.) AnandTech also has two other RSS feeds for Articles and News.
