10GB In A Linux PDA

Posted by timothy on from the off-camera-storage dept.

Deep Penguin writes: "Perhaps attempting to captitalize on the concept of data mining (mixed with turtles?), Serial Systems of Singapore has announced the Terapin Mine, a hand-held the size of a 35mm camera that looks to be a fusion of a double-fistful of geek toys: network storage (10-12Gb), audio record/playback, digital picture display (composite video out), PCMCIA reader and e-mail sender. It's attached to the world via 10BaseT, USB or whatever I/O card is in the PCMCIA socket (modem, LAN, wireless, etc.) Of course, all complex systems evolve until they can read Usenet news, leaving them an upgrade path to version 2. Price? $599. Delivery? End of August, they say. And it runs Linux, so no Microsoft tax." An anonymous reader points to this CNET article on the device as well. I was afraid this would live as vaporware on the Terapin site forever.

    [Alex_T] The answer is : CUNT

    [Me] Who is a girl from florida that pretended to be a friend and maybe a lover but then tells me she has no interest in me at all after leading me on for a long-ass time?

    [Alex_T] That's correct! Who is this cunt?

    [Me] I won't name names, but let's say she's a college girl in Florida who shares an apartment with 3 other people (whom she's banged)

    [Alex_T] Oh you mean Melissa?

    [Me] Damn. You know her too?

    [Alex_T] I thought everyone in Florida did. Anyway, next Answer on Double Jeopardy...

      The mere fact that you are posting this on Slashdot should tell you why this happened to you.
