Hello http://www.techcrunchit.com
Summer break is upon us, nothing of interest. Came to locate some quality entertaining internet jokes.
Show me your gems

Did anyone here about this? A net tablet for roughly $100 – $150?

It would be nice if it had an on-screen control on the side; like a vertical bar with different view options such as zoom and what not.

I would want it to have gps, bluetooth, 3G could be optional, a nice module that can be attached or something (with nice expansion HW you could actually earn something).

Anyway I have some good experience with python. I’ve build an entire touchscreen controlled webapp to manage a communication device (including filesystem manager, network manager, xmms2 frontend and many more). So writing the entire system UI working from within firefox works great.

Also I would suggest a second button that launches a menu (within an other tab).

Hey,

Undergraduate computer engineering major, would love to not only help but if this thing is done, fully speced and developed, would like to know where to find the guide to start building one of my own.

Thanks,
Rohit

Man, people need to pay attention. This project has been dead over a year. It was ripped off from “the crunch crew” by their partners, and made into the JooJoo (https://thejoojoo.com/).

Apparently they haven’t sold a heck of a lot of them… looks like turning it into a purely commercial product was a fail for them.

Point blank, if it can be made with a decent size screen (at least 8.5 X 11 viewable) musicians all over the world will buy it. Arrangements from all genres, lead sheets, fake books, can all be instantly accessed. Must be able to turn pages (iPad).

If there’s anyway I can help……

Hey,

I have recently heard that I have ADHD and since then I have been thinking about a small computer which would work well for people like me who have a problem with organisation, and need a some help to keep all their important information together.

I was browsing the internet for how I could build a cheap tablet PC which I would have everything I need when I came across this. This is almost exactly what I have in mind. A small tablet with full touchscreen to browse the internet and save my administration on.

I have all the technical specs ready, but am just looking for the best way to build it and how to get the needed hardware.

I also have some ideas on how to keep the tablet fast even with mulitiple updates, and have all the data automatically updated.

The best part is that while talking to freinds and family about this they said that the operation of the tablet sounds so easy that even the computer illiterate and elderly should be able to use it with a minimum of training.

There are already a lot of people who have offered to help, but if you still need any please mail me.

Good luck anyways.

The other day someone asked me what I netbook was. For a moment I was stumped, then I said “It used to be all the computing was done on a remote mainframe, and the users just punched data into a a keyboard and watched the results print out on a screen (or even paper, remember that??). Now the Internet is the mainframe, and Netbooks are the terminals” It sounded right when I said it, but your guys are the only other place I’ve heard it. My requests? Instant (or at least FAST on), Touch Screen, WIFI for home, BlueTooth to use my phone as a hotspot, and get to my home printers without cords, a couple USBs to get to hard drives, cameras, MP3 players, etc, 5hr battery life… I’m not picky! Cool project! If I was a computer nerd I was jump in, but I’m just a gear-head

Bruce Nygren I also am very interested. I own a company which manufactures CD listening stations – we have over 1500 MP3-based units in the field, but we are looking for a better, touch screen PC-based solution. Let me know of any developments through facebook, and I will send you an email address.

I’m interested greatly in this project, and would enjoy the design challenge of the project.
