Primarily, he points out that since Palm paid out $9 per share last October, we need to add that $9 onto the current share price, if we want to make a fair comparison against historic Palm stock price (before the $9 pay out).
If this is a valid strategy, I can see how people (stock holders, investors, the public, etc.) might be concerned. Since Palm stock is currently (Jan 2008) at $5.42, it does appear to have dropped significantly from last year, since Paul's info places Palm stock at $13.84 in Jan 2007.
This "adjustment before comparison" did make sense to me... but then I'm not a financial whiz.

FunContact (Windows Mobile) has become faster!
Minor changes make big difference!
28 January, 2008 – VITO Technology releases a new version of FunContact. New version 2.1 of the contact manager loads in the twinkling of an eye. Managing contacts has become faster and still much fun! Minor bugs have been fixed.
Along with finger friendly touch oriented interface like on iPhone FunContact has other awesome features up its sleeve that turn Windows Mobile contact management into real FUN:
- quick access to favorite contacts
- quick access to call history
- instant finger scroll with alphabetic ruler
- keypad for dialing and T9 contacts look up
- built-in contacts editing
- sparkling graphics
- smooth navigation
- animated menus and
- big onscreen buttons
There’s been a definite call from FunContact users to speed up initial start of FunContact. The new version of FunContact starts about 8 times quicker!Memory usage has also been optimized. Now you can have FunContact running safely in background without having to worry how much memory is left for other applications.
Another new feature allows you to add a new contact or update an existing contact with a new number right from the call log.
Lefthanders will be surprised to see the alphabetic ruler appearing on the left side of the screen. It used to appear only on the right side of the screen and lefthanders could not see the big letter in the center of the screen while sliding the ruler for quick contact look-up.
In addition, minor bugs have been fixed. Contact sorting is saved alright even if you exit FunContact. The pretty Korean girl that appeared as default photo for all contacts is gone.
FunContact is available for $19.95 at http://iWindowsMobile.com. Current users upgrade for free.
VITO Technology Inc. is known for its high-tech products in the field of Windows Mobile and Symbian software, GPS navigation and custom projects. Introduced in the present article FunContact is a touch oriented finger friendly contact manager for Windows Mobile Pocket PC.
