Gadget Lust

January 20th, 2011

Oooooooo! This looks interesting. You know… when I bought my Kindle I knew that something better would come along within a year or two. That’s okay though. I’m happy with my Kindle and by the time it has to be replaced (hopefully not for many years) gadgets like this will cost less than they do now.

By the way, it amuses me that they decided to call it the “Adam”. Anyone remember this? We had one of those.

    I remember I remember! Noisy, and very slow printer, wouldn’t even make pictures. Bang. BangBangBang. BangBang. Bang. Didn’t need a special cable and graphics card to make your computer work through the TV – it was the only way to use the computer!

    Yeh, I remember Adams. This one is named Adam in part because of the Eden environment Notion Ink runs on top of the Android OS.

    Oh, andI am trying not to succumb to techie lust an place my name on the (new–since the first production run is sold out already) advance order list. Just today, I thought, “Hmmm, put the thing in a Molskine-like cover, ad a small bluetooth keyboard and… multi-touch tablet and netbook in one–with Bluetooth/3G phone capabilities to boot.”

    And the idea of using it as a media server via the HDMI port is intriguing as well.

    All that (and more) and the ebook capabilities as well? Yeh, fighting techie lust for sure.
