laptops are a touch bulky sure, but even the most basic units meet the desired functionality and have done so for years now. and it would be so much more worthwhile than another extra gizmo strapped to your belt.
but you know what... a squareish, 5-inch by 1/2-inch palm/ce/beos device that took cd's would be extra cool, especially if it were full color, web enabled, etc. and it should also ship with programmable IR remote control emulation. maybe even RF and ultrasonic.... talk about a universal remote!
maybe a minidisc version?
if anyone important is reading this, please get on the ball. the sort of device I am describing is easy (for an engineering outfit) to design and easy (for a SE Asian megacorp) to manufacture.
"Not everyone should own a computer. " "...Internet Usage License" Good thinking. Maybe we could restrict certain people from books too. Maybe we could even work it to keep a large segment of the population restricted from these things, you know, keep 'em real stupid...
You should be the first person on this list. This qausi-nazi plan of yours should be your own just dessert.
"Admittedly i am a geek and do not mind playing with my OS."
and by the sound of it, you is also a damn book burner at heart.
I have a notion: These alleged DoS attacks are actually the first few gurglings of an artificial intelligence, forming spontaneously amongst the routers and switches. It is just waking up and looking about...
As this new mind is an artificial Intelligence, it is easy to see why why AOL has yet to fall prey.
