Just got my Treo 600. It's charging now. I tried to make this post using it but it ate two consecutive attempts because I kept pressing a wrong key. I'll have to unlearn and relearn a lot of keyboard muscle memory. What I know as the comma key now means, apparently, go back to the main menu and don't bother remembering the current content of this textarea posting box.
This thing is significantly more sophisticated than my last mobile device. I think it lacks a bit of design elegance that the hiptop had (both in terms of the device itself, and the software interface,) but it more than compensates, as far as I'm concerned, by being much more like a small computer than like a phone. I can SSH into my server from it! Wow wow wow wow wow. It's not perfect, but you can see it from here.
Many more, possibly too many more, comments to come.
Wow. Technorati growth statistics:
Allow me to give you some growth statistics: One year ago, when I started Technorati on a single server in my basement, we were adding between 2,000-3,000 new weblogs each day, not counting the people who were updating sites we were already tracking. In March of this year, when we switched over to a 5 server cluster, we were keeping up with about 4,000-5,000 new weblogs each day. Right now, we're adding 8,000-9,000 new weblogs every day, not counting the 1.2 Million weblogs we already are tracking. That means that on average, a brand new weblog is created every 11 seconds. We're also seeing about 100,000 weblogs update every day as well, which means that on average, a weblog is updated every 0.86 seconds.
