Shrinking Geek Chic
Tuesday, Nov 06, 2001
There are some items that are simply geek chic. The stock geeks have the same items in their utility-belt. A year ago it was a Nokia 51x0 or 62x0 cellphone, a Canon Digital Elph S100, A Palm V, and some sort of music accessory. For me it was a Archos MP3 Jukebox.

Now things are getting smaller. The Nokia 82x0 and the Samsung (argh, what's it called, anyone?) have taken the place of the older Nokias, iPods are sure to reign even amongst those without macs of their own, and the PDA trunk has bifurcated into m500/505s, Visors, and (for the supercool) color Cliae (I declare the plural of Clie to be Cliae). The S110 and S300 are cooler (fractionally) than the S100, but this new mini-digi-cam camera would take the cake, if only it had a resolution better than 640.480. That time will come.

(btw, I'd like up all those product refs to description pages, but I'm just too busy today, but not too busy yo write to you. Never too busy for that. :-)

If you like it, please share it.
