Today, December 12th, Mobilitysite (Aximsite) turns 6.
This was posted on the Mobilitysite homepage. I will be posting the contests up there, so make sure you are subscribed to the RSS feed for it.
When we have a birthday, we don’t get gifts, we give them. Look out for contests over the next week. They are going to come in different shapes and sizes, some on the frontpage, some just in the forums. You might find one on our Twitter feed only or maybe Facebook? Who knows, just pay attention. Read on for a look back at 6 years and a list of the cool prizes we have in store this year. Warning, super long post…
The 1st Solid Aximsite Layout (Kinda Broken, but you get the point)
I think this was the “1st Layout” ever
For those that don’t know much about the history of Mobilitysite, here is a quick timeline for you. I have been doing amateur websites since 1998. In December 2002, I decided to go back to college. I was going to need a PDA of some sort to keep up with work and school. I bought a Casio BE300 (I think). It sucked. About that time, Dell released the Dell Axim x5 for a price average consumers could afford. I returned the Casio to Office Max and ordered a Dell Axim x5. During the wait time, I read online to try to know all I could about it before it arrived. There was very little to be found. What little I did find were on my, now great friend Jason Dunn’s Site, Pocket PC Thoughts. Dale Coffing’s, Pocket PC Passion was also a good wealth of info.

It’s always good to see Mobile technology at work, but it’s really special to see a device we covered so extensively at Aximsite out there. Just 10 minutes ago, I left a gas station that I stop at to grab a drink each morning. I walked up to the cashier and she had Fred, an employee of Cintas handing her a Dell Axim for a signature. Cintas is a uniform company that delivers uniforms for the companies employees.
It’s really nice to see the Dell Axim still being used as a tool. The device is still quite powerful and today’s modern phones and PDAs have done little to leave it behind in the performance department.
