[SATLUG] [OT] Cell phone rant / open source idea

[Robert J Hewitt]

Honestly I loike the way my current phone size is and Like I said
gadgets like PDA phones and me invite the insurance man to come look at
my incredible lack of multitasking ability when I drive so.  But is I
were looking for some cool gadget to play with in just my house it would
be a Viewsonic Airsync v210. Now that i a cool gadget to play with.  I
saw one at a doctors office and just could not get it off my mind so I
look and look for one at a better then cheap price,  but alas I have not
found one yet.  You should look into it the applications with Linux must
be phenomenal seeing how it  is mostly windows based though its hard to
say.
