I kept it for about a year.&lt;p&gt;The theory was good, but the screen was hard to read, required a stylus (a tiny one was hidden in the strap), and there&amp;#x27;s only so much you can do without a data connection. I used to HotSync news stories to it every morning but realistically a better source of up to date news was still a radio.</text></comment>

Tesla didn&amp;#x27;t invent EVs but started the revolution.&lt;p&gt;What they have in common is that they pick the best of existing technologies and combine that into a product that is ahead of the competition. They don&amp;#x27;t invent new things but invent better things.&lt;p&gt;For me that means you can create better products than the competition by even using old (but good) tech. What matters most is how you apply the tech.</text></comment>
