Palm OS virtual machines



You probably know by now that I’m a bit obsessed by the old Palm OS and PDAs in general. 

One of the best emulators for Palm OS is PHEM. It runs on Android. PHEM works by using Palm OS ROMs. You can load as many ROMs as you want and then from those ROMs create as many sessions or virtual machines as you want. 

This is pretty impressive. I’m just getting back to this and will be creating a variety of little machines soon. 

So Belkin are making a lego case for the iPhone 6

I’ve been checking to see if there was one available every now and then, but I got bored of wondering so I just asked Belkin, and they told me that they are making one! Which is excellent as I’d always liked the one I had for my iPhone 5. I just hope it doesn’t take too much longer.

IFTTT becomes IF and launches 3 new apps

I’m always interested in seeing what IFTTT do. Now they’ve become IF, or at least their main app has become IF and the interface has changed too. If that wasn’t enough though they’ve launched another three apps as well. I’m not entirely sure that I get the idea behind these three new ‘Do’ apps. Perhaps I need to spend a bit more time with them though, to really get what they’re trying to achieve.

What I’d really like to see them do is …

  • Multiple accounts for a channel, so being able to use more than one twitter account
  • Set times for when a channel runs, so control the frequency, like running something twice a day or every 10 minutes
  • Support for chaining

Let’s see if they do anything like that.

Something new coming from pebble

On the pebble web site they’ve got a big countdown timer. Something is coming. In less than 6 days. I’m intrigued. I’m so tempted to get another pebble smart watch, but I’m trying to be patient and see what the Apple Watch is all about until I decide. So will pebble’s news, whatever it is, tip my hand early? I guess it won’t be too long to find out.
