LOL, 2002 palm pilot’s sent to all theaters playing ‘Oppenheimer’ in 70mm because it syncs sound and keeps the film moving at a consistent pace?

Um, shouldn’t there be an app for that? I have questions.

@ApproachingSteed Modern hardware is just now approaching the reliability of these devices. Imagine using a windows tablet that decides to install updates in the middle of a movie.

@djohngo @ApproachingSteed my 2003 SJ22 still works.

@resuna @djohngo Well, I feel much better about the situation. Thank you both. I should have held on to that Treo…. 🤔

@djohngo lol, can’t they write a Unix program or something? If I went to the movie, I’d be neurotic about the palm pilot dying and paranoid the sound sync was off. It’d all be in my head, of course, but movie ruined.

@ApproachingSteed @djohngo They HAVE an app for that. Just… it’s in 68000 assembly.
