Open Source to Give Apple a Run for It's Money
On the cool gadget front, there is a new upstart that can give Apple a run for it’s money with open source applications. The device is called the GiiNii Moveit which is a mobile Internet device that operates on a 4.3 inch screen.
The device is Wifi enabled and can be used with a Skype account to call anyone anywhere via VoIP internet connections so you know how much that costs per call. This device also has a build in mini webcam to make your Skype connection face to face.
Add that to the Internet connection with Google and social networking sites like MySpace, Facebook, and Twitter and you really have something worth talking about. Everything you would like on a small device where open source can add any application you want.
The landscape is looking good out there.
