[Pogue's Posts] This feature has been implemented into other gadgets such as computers (Delicious Library) and that projector/camera/phone thing that the guy from the MIT Media lab made. I think this would be a neat thing to make into a java applet or something that just used the camera and the internet connection.

[MediaMemo] Amazon Unveils Kindle DX. Big Screen, Big Price: $489. | Peter ...: I like the Plastic Logic Reader a great deal, but I think I’ll pick up a Kindle while I’m waiting for PL to get their product out the door. And based on the cost of other large-scale electronic paper devices, the price is actually pretty reasonable, IMHO.

[Pocketables] Review: Nokia N800 Internet Tablet (Part 2): It's full-featured (bookmarks, multiple windows, Flash, etc.) and renders web pages relatively quickly and in their true desktop form. An optimized-view mode is included on the N800, but the native 800 x 480 resolution makes the option more of a nicety than a necessity.

[WXPNews:] Windows XP Security News: Skipping Vista: Is Win7 the OS that XP ...: Although actually a good operating system, Vista got a bad reputation when many OEMs loaded it on low cost machines that were not capable of supporting Aero and further handicapped it by installing all sorts of "junkware," leading everyone who bought one to believe that the OS is slow and unreliable. In addition, most computers that came with Vista installed were running the Home Premium edition, which in my own experience is less stable than its fuller- featured siblings (Business, Enterprise and Ultimate editions).

For example, the person giving this presentation used the Safari browser on his wife's Mac to show the applets he had just compiled in front of our eyes because his own laptop had been stolen a few days before.

[Ajaxian » Front Page] Ajaxian » Ajax, Browsers, Running Out of Time: If you really want to continue using these web applications (Gmail/Yahoo Mail), try to find the problem, pay someone to find it, or report it to the developers of the application. If you really are that fed up to not even try to do something productive, this is an unfortunate loss for the web/Ajax, and I suppose the alternative is using IMAP with Gmail or something like that.

[Seattle Transit Blog] Open Thread - Seattle Transit Blog: I asked earlier about obtaining an ORCA card at a TVM, and it looks like that will be possible. I’m actually going to Amtrak into Tacoma, and screw around there for a few hours before catching Sounder up to Seattle, so I figure if I can’t get a card at a Freighthouse Square TVM I can get it from the Pierce Transit shop at the Tacoma Dome station.

[Jonathan Schwartz's Blog (Comments)] Jonathan Schwartz's Blog: The Rise of JAVA - The Retirement of SUNW: I don't see how changing your stock ticker from SUNW to JAVA increases brand awareness in anyway, i really wouldn't consider the people watching stock prices and stock tickers to be your core market for java. I could think of at least 5 ways off the top of my head that would increase brand awareness alot more than changing the stock ticker *rolls eyes*, for instance, 1 idea would be a big marketing campaign linking SUN to it's Technologies.

[Scobleizer] Comparing N95 to iPhone: That being said- whoever made the comment about Nokia being afraid of the iPhone and their cages being rattled- you’re right to a point, the iPhone will shake things up a LITTLE and we’ll see advances from Nokia now on some levels that we might not have seen for a while as far as the user interface goes, and Nokia might realize that if you spend a half a billion dollars saying a turd is the most sophisticated pile of crap in the known universe, you’ll line Americans up for days infront of your store to buy two turds a piece. Imagine what could happen if you spend that much money and time promoting a device that can actually do what it claims…

[CrunchGear] Here's what's wrong with the Palm Pre: As for applications, its never going to take off with web applications, without an SDK the whole thing is just a waste of time, every Nokia out there can run full Java apps, not these piddling little web page applets, its a real let down to developers that Palm hasn't invited them, .

[Schneier on Security] Schneier on Security: Microsoft and Internet Explorer: I prefer Internet Explorer's security zones feature to twiddling Java/JavaScript constantly on and off in Mozilla/Firefox - something that annoys me so much, that I was willing to forgo tabbed browsing. I admit my configuration is a little non-standard (I began setting the "Internet" zone to "High" back in IE4), and I don't like how Microsoft hard-coded cookie handling for the Restricted Sites zone in IE5, but overall, I'm very happy.
