@lainbot Fun fact, I once had a Palm Centro. I almost got a red one just because it looked like Lain's pocket navi.
@echo @lainbot palm was based. This mad lad is porting palm os to modern devices https://dmitry.gr/?r=05.Projects&proj=27.+rePalm#_TOC_971499a21e41b5eede224c94b7f329cf
@mitchconner @lainbot I would buy a version of this with a rechargeable battery (and if I could figure out how to HotSync it with a modern-ish computer). I had a timer app that did certain things even modern smartwatches can't do.
@echo @lainbot yeah, Pebble comes pretty close to scratching that itch. I've always said it feels more like a Palmpilot than anything. Fortunately, that company just came back from the dead recently. https://repebble.com/
Smart watches with 1-2 days of wear time are really stupid, and that's what most are even now.
I liked my pebbles but they all had big problems with design that screwed them up after a few years, the screen stopped working (and their waterproofing wasn't great)
I've got an amazing bip s which has epic battery life at 45 days a charge, but the pairing isn't great even with gadgetbridge and one of the features that was peak on pebble was sending a pre-selected response. You'd be surprised how well you can hold up a conversation with "yes" "no" "maybe" "lol" and "I'll send a message in a bit".
