The gadget chronicles of the Fongster
Finally...my dream WM5 has arrived in the form of the Dopod 838pro! It's all that I ever wanted in a WM5..only thing missing's GPS...annoying thing is that it uses microSD...only available in 1G when I bought the 838pro..
Screen
Main: 2.8" 240x320 resolution (QVGA)
Colors: 65536 colors TFT screen (effective)
Here's my current Tablet PC..the 8.9", 1kg lifebook p1510. Love this unit...and bought a 6 cell extended battery (notice the protrusion) that give me enough juice for 7 hours of fun! Specifications wise.. fingerprint sensor, touch screen, 60G HDD, 512MB RAM, Pentium M 1.2G. Only downside...max res is only 1024x600...would love to have this a little higher. But I can safely say that this is the perfect sized Tablet PC for me..any smaller you'll be squinting (ie, my previous UMPC was the vaio U71p with a 5" screen)..any larger, it'll be too heavy!
My first impressions when I bought this was that it resembled a toaster! Oh well, I needed a nifty Network Storage device and settled for the SC101 because it allows me to slot in 2 IDE drives, attach to the network. Setting this up was simple and was totally in harmony with my Netgear wireless router..so no complaints there.
Here' a nifty 2.5" USB HDD enclosure I bought..Sarotech Cutie OTG (on the go)..had an in built battery pack that provides juice on the move..perfect for digital photographers who need to back up their memory cards whilst in the field.
My quest for all things small and Bluetooth has led to the purchase of these 2 little bewdies..the iTech i35 and the Jabra JX10.
Hi all!
Ever since I got my niftly little iPod Nano, I have been downloading and listening to podcasts as I'm getting to lazy to read these on the 'net.
My favourite podcasts have to be the KFI Techguy - Leo Laporte...Slashdot and TWIT. I use iPodder to download my podcasts.
I'm baaaaa-ck! As some of you may know, been busy preparing for my wedding early next year so haven't had the time to even update my blog. About a couple of months of sabbath, it's time to catchup on this rather neglected gadget blog of mine..:)
Yes..at long last, I finally took delivery of a gadget I have been yearning for a good year or so (been very costly when it was first released and couldn't find a decent US site to buy it from)...thanks to Mr Gadget, I am now a proud owner of the Think Outside Stowaway Bluetooth Keyboard!
