There are many ideas of posible uses with the device there is wikipedia, ogg player, some games and thre is open street maps. The last one is now accesible offline trought the nanonote and also is linked to a gps so you can now where you are. I saw that before? surelly yes but now in a copyleft device.

GPS on the nanonote

As some of you already know may be others not, there is an upcoming
effort [1] about implementing a GPS Device for the nanonote, _but_ in a
free/libre way.

As was already proved before you can attach [2] a
commercial non-free GPS device and find your position on a nice map,
but the idea is go further, so we want implement a sofware/hardware
method for processing I/Q signals coming from a SiGE SE4162T GPS
Receiver IC.

So far i got some "raw" data [3], it is basically the  4-bit I/Q
(2-bit I and 2-bit Q) from SiGE chip arranged [6] continuouslly.

Now with help from Fabrizio Tapper from CTAE, this data is about to be
processed in order to verify that the PRN codes [5] from the satellites
on sky view [4] could be tracked. Of course any aditional
help is wellcome :-).

~/blog/log32_.html I love Mimi & Eunice cartoons, i read it everyday, and enjoy sharing it
by irc or microblog from time to time.

But why not carry it with me?

Well it is posible and very easy, if you own a Ben nanonote!,
just copy the thumbail version from the (http://mimiandeunice.com/)
webpage. scp it to your nanonote, and using the zgv application you can
browse and check the cartoons, it fit very well and you need arrow keys
for visualizing the whole history.

Copyleft cartoons with Copyleft hardware :-)


There still missing the way to get all cartoons automatically,
lets see what can be done for that later.
