I sold the Salesperson but I didn't sell the customer.

I stopped by my local Best Buy tonight to check out their PDA's and other goodies (Until tonight I had yet to touch a Neo or Pro) and overheard the salesperson pushing an HP Jornada. He talked about memory blah blah blah the general stuff to try and catch a customer's ear. When he stopped talking to the customer he asked me if I wanted any help. I said "No, I'm fine" and he proceded to try and push the same Jornada with me. So I procdeded to push Palm OS devices (with an emphasis on visors) on him. Told him about all of the memory problems of the Pocket OS PDA's and why they need to have all their extra features and why Palm OS devices could do the same things and quicker. By the end of the conversation he told me that he was planning on buying the Jornada he was trying to sell me and that I had changed his mind. Meanwhile the customer that he had been talking to earlier was looking at the visors/clies and all of the stuff I was blabbering on about but I think he was just browsing cuz he didn't buy anything. Oh well, I guess. Maybe the salesperson will use some of my points and start selling some visors. :-D

I stopped at Best Buy to check out the $149 color 16MB Jornada, to see how good it was. Poor color screen and slow as dirt!
