Is the assumption at this point that the RR's have been notified but asked to keep it quiet, or that the program still hasn't rolled out?   05/12/2009, 08:54 PM   #23 (permalink) Gekko Member     Join Date: May 2004 Location: USA Posts: 2,006 Thanks: 0 Thanked 304 Times in 164 Posts i just emailed a very famous high level top 5 technology reviewer and asked him/her if we can expect a review from him/her any time soon. his/her exact response was - "Stay tuned, but ignore wild speculation about timing." now please don't inundate these people with emails.   05/12/2009, 09:55 PM   #24 (permalink) jhoff80 Member   Join Date: Apr 2003 Location: Boston-area Posts: 4,269 Thanks: 213 Thanked 555 Times in 311 Posts dstaley: @palm_inc Can you please give us some information regarding the Real Reviewer program?

Because nobody would be so cruel as to joke about something like this... Would they?   05/13/2009, 03:56 PM   #36 (permalink) TomD Member     Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: Las Vegas Posts: 534 Thanks: 33 Thanked 78 Times in 28 Posts Quote: Originally Posted by Reminiz You have got to be kidding me.

He DID share his Twitter name here, just very subtile. __________________ Tom Pilot Pro --> M100 --> Treo 600 --> Treo 700p -- > Pre   05/13/2009, 03:58 PM   #37 (permalink) schnoid Member     Join Date: Jan 2007 Posts: 761 Thanks: 82 Thanked 24 Times in 17 Posts twitter's down... bummer :-( __________________ To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater.

But I thought he would have announced something here.
