Some other great digital ideas today are digitized books: an iRex iLiad will hold digitized books and "read" them to you... just like an Amazon Kindle, but open to many other different formats.

Add a few reference documents and I'm pretty much mobile. Basically, it lets me have my own custom and portable PLE. The only downside is the slow access times with some usb sticks.Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11614048567979531396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14184878.post-32422522654109750742008-11-17T08:16:00.000+00:002008-11-17T08:16:00.000+00:00@Clark I suspect the computer you borrow will hav...@Clark I suspect the computer you borrow will have solitaire on it already ;o)The upsychohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06345558899662051670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14184878.post-34093702166718728072008-11-17T03:02:00.000+00:002008-11-17T03:02:00.000+00:00What, no solitaire?What, no solitaire?Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07822235162664957878noreply@blogger.com
