in my opinion, it's up to you. there shouldn't really be a strict definition, since everyone's needs and starting point is different. don't worry so much about trying to live up to a particular standard and figure out what level and methods of disengaging from Google (or any other tech company) works best for you.

(edit: autocorrect fix)

they were super cool, and i always wanted one. but i ended up mostly staying in Palm land, I ventured into iPaqs and other Windows devices a tiny bit, took a break from Palm for the Linux-based Zaurus at one point, played with Symbian here & there but still kept ending up back at Palm until my Centro kicked the bucket. tried to bounce around with Symbian and Maemo for a while after that but inevitably had to go Android with it

clearly it was made by boeing...
