Shiny Happy Gadgets

By Ben Kepes

Resident coffee Geek Brenda waxes poetic about shiny open source mobile devices – the list of things talked about is long and arduous;

  • Android
  • OpenMoko
  • Trolltech
  • Rockbox
  • ALP
  • Open Pandora
  • GPX2
  • SymbianOS
  • Arduino
  • Zigbee
  • OLPC

Some really interesting thoughts around building non-production testing sites so caffeine-fueled hackers can play around and do some crazy developing on mobile platforms. Non-prob is a fantastic resource – it’s the perfect combination of mutual benefit, fostering of IP, problem solving and talent creation – nice!

The Diversity pick for the seriously smart man to watch in the years ahead? David Ten-Have of Ponoko.
