Ten Memorable Moments
Posted by Andy Sjostrom in "THOUGHT" @ 05:00 AM
This is my 1,000th post and while I know that about twenty of you are ahead, I still want to "celebrate" a little and ponder on ten memorable moments!
The evening in Paris when I first saw the light, in the form of a Casio Cassiopeia E-11.
My first meeting with the Nordic Product Manager for Windows CE devices, Christin Walth. Her very person is the true definition of energy and inspiration.
My meeting with Compaq VP Ted Clark when he pulled out a prototype of the first iPAQ Pocket PC, months before the launch
My first GSM phone call using an iPAQ Pocket PC, a PC Card sleeve and Nokia's Card Phone
Jason's e-mail on June the 9th, 2001: "Andreas, You have a great writing style, and I'm wondering if you're interesting in being a correspondent for my site, specifically in the enterprise space. I know you don't have a lot of time, but there are some great enterprise apps and stories out there..."
Severly regretting a post, and then not regretting it
Seeing my book on Amazon.com
The day Pocket PC outsold Palm in Sweden
When Dell announced their first Pocket PC
Seeing "Stinger" (Smartphone) the first time, years (!) before the launch
There are many more memorable moments, but these were the first to come jumping up the screen when I started to type! :)
