I followed Jeff & Donna's move from 3Com/Palm to Handspring via their website (initially JD Technologies) and just kept checking back there until there was "life".

For a time, I didn't think there was ever going to be "life". Now that there is, I wish they would've waited until they were better organized to handle their launch.

The President of the San Francisco Palm User Group brought one to the September meeting for us to all drool over (On).

I read a small article in the November 1999 PCWorld magazine. I was thinking of upgrading my PC and saw the article and then surfed the www.handspring.com site and fell in love. I had been considering a Timex Datalink watch, then thought about a 3Com Palm and decided to order the Visor! ;-)

Hear about it at SlashDot.
I was in the market for a PDA, but $400+ was a little too rich for my blood. The low price of the Visor hooked me, and the Springboard set the hook.

I heard about it over dinner when we were visiting with friends in Sonoma. She writes a tech column for a computer magazine, and had one of the demo units with her. She pulled it out to take notes about something we were discussing, and showed it to us. I had been considering getting a Palm Pilot for a while, and after seeing it, and reading some more about it when I got back home, I was sold.

All I can say is Slashdot baby

I think Nitpicking Dept., was sharing brain cells with me. I saw the interview with Dubinsky. It was on NBC Nightly News with Brokaw. Don't remember where I saw that the site was live, but by the time I found them, it was 2 days after start (9/16 for me).

A USA Today ad was the first place I read about the Visor. Soon after that, the discussion was going around work about the new PDA company. I did some research on the Handspring web site and ordered the Visor Deluxe on September 24. I am still impatiently waiting for its arrival.

Since then about 4 people have ordered and received the Palm 3x. I am still getting ribbed about my order.

I read about it on CNN. Ordered 29 September. Waiting with 68 percent of you, according to the on line poll.

The Doctor I Work For.

From a fellow grad student. I'm in my second year of B-school and a lot of the MBAs have Palmpilots. I bought a used Pilot 1000 and was using it for a few months, and I was asking other students about the Palms they were using. Most of them were Palm III's, and I was considering getting one, then one student told me to check out something called Handspring. I've had my Visor for about a week, and it's a hoot.

Read a Time Magazine article in the doctor's office some time around last week of August/first week of September...

I heard about it from the popular science article.

Fellow student and teacher at high school

I first heard about the Visor on ZDTV's Fresh Gear show. They talked about how much less expensive it was compared to the 3Com Palm V and it's Springboard expansion possibilities.

I started to take notice, and found this discussion group....it didn't take long and I too ordered one....just got it today 11/29!!
