New Focus

If you have seen this blog before, you will notice a new name which indicates a slight change of focus for the blog.

I started the blog because I was bored with the latest gadgets and smartphones as they now seem to be offering little which is new or exciting, so decided to get myself an old gadget which I had coveted many years ago but couldn't afford.

This was the HP Jornada 720, which I have had hours of pleasure tinkering around with for the last couple of months, but I am now hankering for more, so I have ordered myself an old Sony Clie PDA from ebay.

I also took delivery of the exact same make and model of TV/Radio/Alarm Clock that I had as a child and hooked this up to a Freeview box, and am now reliving memories of black and white TV from my youth.

Next, I would also love to get my hands on (a reasonably priced) Samsung SGH P310 mobile phone.

As I would also like to blog about these, it made sense to change the title of the blog. I will continue to post about the Jornada, but this will no longer be the sole focus.

I will add any Windows CE software that I have mentioned but so far not added to the software repository, but of course this will probably expand to include Palmos software and who knows what in the future as well.

Thanks for reading.
