Convert Your Pocket PC Into... A Belt-Buckle?
You know... I thought I was a pretty geeky guy. Not so, after seeing pt's latest "invention" -- a Pocket PC belt buckle that displays the latest (get this) search engine queries. 8O
"It was a late August Saturday night in Seattle, we decided not only to hit the dance floor, but boogie on down in a whole new way. All the cats in town are wearing big belt buckles now, so we thought, hey, here�s our chance to show the world our latest hack, the Search Engine Belt Buckle."
You're seeing an iPAQ 2215 adapted to fit on the belt and displaying a video clip of search terms flying by on SearchSpy. I'm so not worthy. :werenotworthy: Hey pt, have you considered trying Spb Time on that? You could top the wrist-wearable Spb Watch. :lol: (Small warning: some of the search terms are a little off-color.)

He needs to upgrade it...
He could make it a bit more socially acceptable by implementing media player visualizations on it. Use the microphone so the visualizations could respond to the music like Windows Media Player.

That would be cool, except that Pocket Windows Media Player has no visualizations. ;-)

I distinctly recall one app that does visualizations based on the mic input. God knows I can't remember the name of it now, though.
