Palm Exec Steals My Speech

from the how-dare-he dept

I’ve spent the past week putting the finishing touches on the talk I’m giving next month at O’Reilly’s Emerging Technologies Conference entitled, If You’ve Got The Killer App, How Come I’m Not Dead Yet. So, how do I feel when I discover that a top exec at Palm has stolen my speech for his keynote address at iWireless World? Well, I guess it’s okay. Just like startup CEOs say when a VC asks them about the sudden emergence of a competitor. “It just validates what I’m saying.” My talk will just have to be better than his.
