Audries can be had for about $100-150, and can be set up to play MP3s off of a remote server. They're touchscreen, not too big, and work well for it.
I've got one, but mostly it just sits on my desk.
I find the idea of a program that can identify my MP3s by audio fingerprint, and will submit that information to somewhere on the Internet a little creepy...
By doing this are we going to encourage a whole generation of kids to learn to break systems so they can get uncensored access to the internet? How much time will libraries spend cleaning up after budding hackers?
...that's doing bluetooth on the GBA, but for a lot more than playing games. Their "edutainment" angle makes me suspicious, but they've got some interesting looking features.
Well my web server admin just said today "it can handle a slashdot, easily" - so I guess I'm going to see if he was just talking out his arse;)
These are just the low-res ones.

peepfig.avi (13.4mb)
peep.avi (44.2mb)
First two should be done in about five minutes, third may take a little longer.
Well, we've got nearly invisible bluetooth headsets, eyeglass displays, and now a keyboard that doesn't exist. Your chances of being mistaken for an well dressed, crazy homeless person are becoming greater by the day.
I notice a few people proudly pointing out things that America has done for the world technologically, and then other anti-Americans shooting it down and claiming that things were actually invented in other countries first. What's their point? Why do they want to defame our country?
If these got advanced enough, how many people would sacrifice their real eyes for something bionic? And would geeks start hacking their own firmware for them?
Slashdot Mirror
If I could mod you higher than 5 I would. That's a beautifully simple statement that just sums things up perfectly.
That's funny and yet...not.
I see your rig and raise you this.

Good thing they waited until after the operation to tell us about it. I'd hate for them to get Slashdotted in the middle of it.
But the subject could just as easily have been "Microsoft thinking of ways to prevent spam." Come on guys.

That phrase just gives me shivers for some reason (the good kind).
*insert open-source Soviet Russian death star Empire Jar Jar joke here*
Maybe they should include a magenet on the back so it can be attached to the inside of a bathroom stall for hands-free use.
Especially not with one of these.

Combine this with that electronic device printing and we could whip up an army of Epson cyborgs in no time!

I can just see the freeway pileup that would happen when the administrator of the first ever movile webserver gets slashdotted.

"Oh no! I spammed my shorts again!"
Sounds like Apple's standard pompus elitist bullshit to me.
If you can afford an $8000 plasma screen, you can afford to blow a few hundred dollars on graphics cards and buy one of each :)
Just because you have no hand-eye coordination doesn't mean the rest of us are the same. I bet you drive an automatic too, don't you?
So unless there's good content, there's no reason to buy a $125 phone.
$125? Hell, I'd buy a $125 color phone in a heartbeat. It's the $500 tag on the T68 that's holding me back.
Who wouldn't buy a $125 phone? Those people who use the free Nokia 5200 that comes with their plan?
