Yet another linux based "blackberry killer" or "iPhone killer" or "iPod
killer" or "Tivo killer" or "<insert name here> killer" product is released.
But somehow as if by magic ALL of these products are nowhere to be seen,
heard or found. If anything, they are and remain insignificant blips in
whatever market they are supposed to be "killing" in.
Do this... before proclaiming the next "iPod killer" or "Blackberry killer"
or whatever, why don't you wait until this "killer product" has 0.005% of
the sales of the iPod, Blackberry or whatever before you proclaim that it's
the "killer" that you claim it is.
Otherwise you will continue to look like the fool that you are.

LOL! Good one. Big name brand companies like Motorola, Palm and Nokia have
been trying for years to get their slice of the Blackberry (Crackberry)
market and have been unable to make even the slightest dent.
But this Schestowitz lunatic thinks that some company named "GUPP
Technologies" that nobody has ever heard of before is going to kill the
dominant Blackberry. And what feature exactly does GUPP have that the
Blackberry doesn't? Oh yes, it runs linux of course. So in his universe the
millions of LOYAL Blackberry users are all going to abandon their Blackberry
and switch to GUPP solely because it happens to run linux.
And anyone who believes this should email me immediately. I have a slightly
used bridge that I'm willing to sell you.
You're talking to yourself now? Look everyone! A sockpuppet show. Scott Nudds
nymshifts and replies to self.

This is what happened to Gary Stewart in the end, he ended up having his
own conversations between his own nyms. I'm sure there's a serious sign
of mental instability there - it's not normal behaviour to conduct long
public conversations with yourself, I don't think.

It's very sad, isn't it?
