So check out Gumstix

For reference, Gumstix are cool. Gumstix are a tiny brand of computer board based on Intel XScale technology. They have a pretty good number of expansion modules.

They're on my "to play with" list. Complete with WiKi!

They'll fit nicely into my retro PDA design, if I can ever get that together.

Flexible Electronic Paper Display

Article: Flexible Electronic Paper Display

These "electronic paper" displays are manufactured by e-Ink. Really exciting stuff actually. I'm hoping to one day be able to use it to create an "Open" PDA that is cheap to manufacture.

Or any display for that matter!

Update: e-Ink is shipping kits in November. Link here.

Update #2: The kits are $3,000...!! Which will lead me directly to a post about Gumstix instead.

New Olympus V-40 and V-50 voice recorders

Article:

Olympus makes some good voice recorders. They're cross-platform compatible and have a pretty good capacity. I'll be watching these ones, as I think I need (yet another) replacement recorder.

The site is in Japanese. Looks like they'll be between $200 and $300 CDN.

Vedic Math Links

For Jean.

"Vedic Mathematics or Sixteen Simple Mathematical Formulae from the Vedas" (Sri Bharati Krisna Tirthaji)

"Vedic Mathematics" (Bharati Krsna Tirthaji)

An astonishing First Post!

Hey there, I'm Simon, and this is my new organizational blog. It will be
GTD-centric, since David Allen's system is the one I have decided fits best with my lifestyle.

This blog will also cover my thoughts and opinions on Transportation. In my life day to day transportation and getting organized are very closely related.

And it will cover Fileix, which is a program I'm writing to organize physical files, and maybe other 'stuff'.
