I just laugh at the idea of porn services with "Palm" in the title (there's a link on that site to even more "graphic" handheld erotica)

I personally love this poster for a badminton/squash competition. Notice the blue "splash" on the right. How graphic can it get ? =)

owillis - Erotigo laughs at it too... hence their slogan, "Sex in the palm of your hand." XiBe - great link, thanks. But what does this have to do with Erotigo?

I screen investments for VCs/angel investors and this business plan landed on my desk several months ago. institutions tend to stay away from this stuff because it's still taboo to finance adult media companies (although several large conglomates do it indirectly.) As a result, companies like Erotigo have trouble getting financing from traditional sources. Most of my clients are individual investors, don't have those constraints, and tend to be more open-minded. I passed on it, however, because the first image that popped into my head was the probable user jerking off while squinting at a 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 inch monochrome screen, and it seemed a little unrealistic. then again, i could be wrong. (i imagine myself penniless ten years from now, crying myself to sleep and moaning "if i'd only invested in Palm-ready porn in '01!") just out of curiosity, does anyone here think there's really a sustainable mass market for portable porn? and if so, what would keep traditional "adult media" companies from putting out their own PDA-ready stuff? i don't see any real barriers to entry.

Fofer : it has pretty much nothing to do with Erotigo, just continuing the "graphic" thing owillis' post =)

I love this sentence for so, so many reasons. Really. euphemisms are highly overrated. (and much less entertaining...)

Got an e-mail from someone without a membership tonight with a link to the Palma Sutra. My boy's PalmIII will never be the same again.
