I used to await, eagerly, the release of new Personal Digital Assistants, to see what the new models would bring. I loved my Tungsten T3. The LOOX T830 was a bit odd, but it suited me.

I loved netbooks, and the incremental improvements in small, relatively cheap, computing.

I can't think of anything, tech-wise, that brings me that kind of excitement any more.

Another shiny rectangle with a tweaked camera.

A slightly faster ThinkPad.

And so on.
