Russell Beattie got a Sony PSP, but what he has to say is relevant to the 770 market as well, and he mentions 770 as another exciting development in the mobile gadget world. He’s not exactly happy about the $350 price sticker, but here’s what he has to say:
There are tons of opportunities here! Just like when the Wipeout Pure browser hack was first found, people started automating a bunch of household stuff to make the PSP into a sort of universal remote. This is a great idea: Anything with a web front end can now suddenly be “remotely controlled” by this device and others like it. I envision that Web Tablets are going to replace the “laptop on the lap on the couch” and the morning newspaper quickly. It’s just a REALLY convenient way to read the web without the bulk of even a Tablet PC - it’s so light and convenient and quick to pick up and start using. This is soooo key.
I agree 100% with his comments, as that’s exactly what I’m going to do with the 770. Replace the couch laptop I’m typing on right now and automate the heck out of everything I can. Has their been any work on a VNC client for the 770 yet? That would definitely be the final piece in my puzzle.
