Updated Easter eggs in Prism


Mon Oct 30, 2000 - 2:18 PM EST - By James Hromadka

There is an Easter egg in Palm OS devices that shows a taxi cab scooting across the screen. Handspring has updated the easter egg to be a sporty red convertible.

Go into your Visor's General preferences page and draw a small anti-clockwise circle just above the silkscreen calculator. You should see a little easter egg appear. Even the egg is in color
Go into Memo Pad, and then, while holding the down button, draw a horizontal line from the middle of the graffiti area all the way to the left edge of the Prism's screen.
If you do it right, you should see a little red open-topped sports car zoom by from right to left.

Just for grins, I tried the Flip easter egg and noticed that Flip is now in color, but the text only says "Brought to you by: The Handspring Team & Flip!" instead of also listing some of Handspring's employees.

Thanks to Tan Kit Hoong for noticing the red car and for the directions. Discuss the egg here.
