I've been playing around with putting apps that are currently on PDAs on to these things, in two different contexts: - we have a PDA app (written in c#) that is used by service engineers travelling to different customer sites and talks to a (vfp) web service. Whilst normal laptops could be used they're (relatively) delicate, cumbersome and have poor battery life. Now things like the eee make moving up from a PDA a whole lot more sensible - at home I've been experimenting with PDAs to remote control this (via its web interface): http://www.slimdevices.com/pi_squeezebox.html ... but haven't been too happy with it. Now an eee with Linux on should make a good cheap controller - when it arrives ;-) -- Cheers ============ Brian Abbott ============ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
