Brave New World

“Imagine a lightweight and wearable personal digital assistant (PDA) with:

1.) Solar power supply with a lithium-ion charge pack
2.) MPEG type video and audio playback
3.) Satellite communications (gps, weather, telephone, Internet, email)
4. Transponder
5. CCD video and digital camera

Someone is going to do it. Question is, when.”

“BTW, there's a pretty good deal on Audible.com. If you sign up at about $13 per month, they'll send you a free mpeg player (about $250 bones at Amazon). At Audible, you download your reading books of all sorts, load 'em up into your 3.5oz mp3 player and hit the trail.

Thought I'd pass it on.”

“I suppose you are right. But not me.”

“Is that what brave is?”

“Does it come with feelies?”

“If it comes with an orgasmatron, I'm buying!”
