The Hipster Lo-fi PDA

Well, this is a interesting alternative to the electronic pda...the hipster lo-fi pda is basically a bunch of business cards (or paper of simalar size) organised into used and fresh sheets.

ideal for remembering stuff, although too much use of it will make your memory rely on it. Which probably isnt a good thing...

This isnt a totally random link, it is from 43folders.com, a site dedicated to applying Dave Allen's Getting Things Done, I would put up a link to the ebook version i am currently reading (paper is so pass'e...heh, oops) but i doubt it would be legal...humbug!

Oops, Dead Again...

The O2 XDA Mini S is dead again, this is the second time in under a week. Same problem as last time, the phone refuses to boot. What was I doing to it? simply trying to setup the woefully terrible bluetooth support with windows, I am not even sure the bluetooth on this phone works as it hasn't been able to connect to the pc or the mac, or anyone else's phone... Guess it is back to factory defaults again, I have wasted a phenomenal amount of time on this phone...and so far seen little benefit or example of anything truly cool that it can do...

Oops

This is what happens when a BT engineer pulls the wrong cord... btw, the widget is called Watchmouse (duh!). The best part about it is that if there is a failure, it automatically takes you to a page where the response times from a bunch of servers around the world are listed. Just to make sure it isn't just your computer/connection that is duff...

iPod Photo - A Stepping Stone?

When I heard there was going to be an iPod Photo I groaned with the weight of predictablness. What do you do when you have a product that is coming to the middle of its product-life-cycle...put a damn camera on it! However, I read an article which looks at this in a slightly different way, which makes a lot of sense. Apple could never add Wi-Fi P2P built into the iPod, as the music industry would go nuts and fling lawsuits like pie at a circus. The possible way round this is under the guise of 'allowing' people to share their photos between iPods, and...oops...their music too. Just imagine...sitting on the tube, connected to every iPod in a 10m radius, at 55Mb/s an album would transfer in a matter of seconds. Plenty of time to check out the collections of the people around you. This vision would make iPod sales go through the roof, I know I would buy one. Link Here
