(+) A Computer and a Telephone in Your Shirt Pocket

I am always fascinated by gadgets, especially miniaturized computers. I have really enjoyed the latest gadget. I recently purchased a tiny “Internet tablet” that slips into my shirt pocket. This tiny, full-powered computer includes a webcam, a GPS receiver, and wi-fi networking. As long as I am in range of a wireless wi-fi base station, I can surf the web, read and write e-mail, listen to music, take pictures, send those pictures by e-mail, and even receive and make free telephone calls. I can also download and install any of hundreds of free programs for this pocket powerhouse.

The free telephone calls require a bit of explanation that I will write about in a separate article to be published within a few days.
