Hey Marcel, I just used MxTube to download a video called "mothers of invention" about women in China doing biogas as I head out to go to the airport to head to Cairo. Normally I would have said, "I don't have time to do this, so it will be too bad for my colleagues, who won't get to see this" because it would take to long to download to my laptop and convert. But now, thanks to you, I simply donwloaded the file straight to my ipodtouch. Wow! You have earned the thanks of all of us at Solar CITIES!T.H.

Re: the mini beamer, it looks like everything is always more expensive in GB; I paid $357.30 (with tax, 323.99 without) for the 3M unit through Best Buy (had to order on line creating a business account though; not available in stores. It is called "BestBuyforBusiness, BBFB."<BR/>I suspect they will come down in price now that there is competition from Aiptek. I'll let you know how it field tests!T.H.

What a powerful tool! <BR/><BR/>I think we discussed a while back about taking uTube and similar content to the streets but of course the biggest problem is power. No More!<BR/><BR/>Glad to see you're using the tools!<BR/><BR/>Love to you and your family.<BR/><BR/>MarcelMarcelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17837669713762321651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1334849659163883527.post-87204935855326420722008-12-28T11:57:00.000-08:002008-12-28T11:57:00.000-08:00I dont' mind at all, in fact I would be delighted....I dont' mind at all, in fact I would be delighted. We need to move fast so that another generation doesn't abuse the potential of our technology and condemn so many people and other lifeforms to unnecessary struggle and suffering. I have now downloaded so may great apps for the ipod (scientific calculators, unit converters, counters, data loggers etc.) that, with the videos on building low tech climate solutions, it is going to be quite a useful field tool. I only wish (and wait for) a time when these units have built in infra-red temperature sensors (so I don't have to use my pocket digisense unit), light sensors (to calculate lumens) volt and ammeters, a compass, and other diagnostic data collection tools. It DOES have a carpenters level (because of its gravity sensor, very useful for setting up solar panels at the right angle) an Arabic translation service (only available when connected through wi-fi unfortunately) and an Arabic-English copy of the Qur'an (with audio, searchable!), so it is going to be really cool. But I dream of a portable "everything device" and suspect that will come soon. Woudn't it be cool if it also measured salinity and turbidity and told us if there was contamination in the water? That is the kind of thing you might put in the wish list in your article. And yes, after all the frustrations I've had dealing with development problems, tell everyone I said so. We know what is needed, and it isn't more apps that let us play PacMan while waiting at the airport!T.H.
