Leo Laporte and Mike Arrington were talking about the Palm Pre on Twit.tv when Michael Arrington and Leo Laporte when at it. Michael was asking Leo Laporte whether or not he actually paid for it, and Leo got extremely upset. Anyway watch the video for yourself. I warn you it’ gets a little rough.
Personally I know first hand that when you get your ethics questioned, you say things you might regret later. However getting your ethics questioned is not fun, and really shouldn’t happen if you’ve proven yourself time and time again. Leo is one of those people that has never given a good review of anything if he hasn’t meant it.
He is one of my favourite tech personalities and a childhood hero like Mr. Rogers and Mr. Dress Up! He got a free Palm Pre to try for 7 days, and will probably go buy a new one anyway. Palm was smart and gave him one for a few days because they knew he might not be able to get one in time for his internet show. That’s all.
