pt's Location-based Playlists
The inimitable pt has once again come up with a truly unique Pocket PC-based solution to suit his lifestyle.
"location based play lists. what are they? well- imagine the songs on your music playing device changing based on where you are at, that's what i made-for now i am using a pocket pc with gps to feed in the location data as i jog, based on that data my flash mx application will load in specific play lists and songs. as i run in areas that have steep hills i want hard rock, when i am running in the flat areas i tend to prefer hip hop. the screeshot to the right is ugly, but it's just for testing. i'd like my car to play different songs based on the drive and roads i am taking too (working on that)... for now my application is working fine, i am adding more play lists based on landmarks now (as i jog near the space needle, it will play historical information)."
I've got one comment: :werenotworthy:. Too bad he doesn't have a public version available for us to download and play with... MiTAC should also contact him and bundle this with their GPS-enabled Pocket PC!

I swear! Donald Trump used to do it for me...but I'd trade all the jets, gold, cash, and such to be pt! No really!
I should clarify...I'd trade all of Donald's goods. I have none to trade. Sorry pt. Take Visa?

That's the prettiest ugly I've seen...
Man how the heck does he come up with these ideas? pt, if you read this, what's your thought process for coming up with something like this?
