The Game Boy’s portability was a major part of its success, but we doubt Nintendo thought it could be this portable. In 1993, Aleksandr Serebrov took his Game Boy with him into space. He was on his way to the Mir space station and wanted something to do in his off time. Because of weight issues, Serebrov could only take one game. He chose Tetris, an appropriate game for the place and time. His Game Boy spent 196 days in space and orbited the Earth over 3000 times. It and Serebrov’s copy of Tetris were later sold at auction for $1220.

I don’t think Brad is using the term “performance” the same way you may be thinking. He’s talking about how the performance impacts usability. I picked out a few quotes from Brad’s review: “Overall, I find the NovaGo to be moderately frustrating to use. It lacks that magical feeling that I’ve come to take for granted with modern computers: instantaneous results I’d forgotten what it was like to click a button and then have to wait a moment for something to happen before figuring out if the click had registered, or to type a line of text and wait for it to show up on the screen before I can see if there are any typos.” “Really, just about any computer with an Intel Core Y-series processor would probably offer better performance.

What is a problem for Palm OS these days is Palm never supplied support for WPA2/PSK2 for any models with WiFi. There’s supposedly a near mythical ‘enterprise’ software addon for the T|X that includes WPA2/PSK2 support but I’ve not been able to find it anywhere. I have a LifeDrive (microdrive replaced with 4gb CF) and a Tungsten E2, plus my old Visor Platinum. IIRC Dmitry (the palm powerups guy) was working on a WPA2 addon for Palm OS but never released it.
