I noticed a few online stores carrying a device Called the PocketSurfer 2 ('Lite'[sic] and 'R') and since the adds where conspicuous in their lack of real specs, I thought I'd check out the website.

Wow, have a look at their FAQ. They try to state how the device is far superior to PDAs and SmartPhones, only they appear to be comparing it which those devices of about 5 years ago!

There's so much wrong on their FAQ that I don't really know where to begin pulling it apart, only to highlight to part where they sate "Will Wireless-Broadband-Access negate the need for PocketSurfer2 Solution?
PocketSurfer2 Technology becomes more valuable with the introduction of next generation higher-bandwidth networks because it will still offer faster Web-access over alternative solutions, and at a lower cost of usage.
" - WTF?

Oh and then there's my favoutite bit, "What OS (Operating System) does the PocketSurfer2 use?
The Web is the OS for the PocketSurfer2." rolleyes.gif

I wonder what version of 'The Web' they're running and if I could hack my Kaiser to get it on there too. tongue.gif No wonder the PocketSurfer 2 doesn't need (or have!) 3G data when it has The Web pre-installed. Wow, just imaging the size of the daily automatic updates though! ohmy.gif
