And this is the latest gadget, but by far the best.
If you follow this link and click demo, you will see what I mean.
Wayfinder Systems.
GPS Navigating on my P800! Never being lost while driving. The thing guides me everywhere in Western Europe and it works amazingly cool.
No maps to be stored locally, because it collect through GPRS the route data or the map I want to use. And even with only small amounts of data (5kb for a trip from Hilversum to Leiden f.i.).
Yes, this is the best application/gadget I've encountered and, as you see, I am very happy with it.

P800 Keyboard continuing story
Long live the Internet!
In a couple of postings ago, I showed you my latest gadget. A IR wireless keyboard for my P800. Through some discussion groups I found a driver for the keyboard and was very happy.
Today I'm happy again, some guys on the net shared their own made drivers for the keyboard with the world. And more and more is possible with them.
Thanks guys!

tracking and tracing
Jeez, how I like the Internet and it's applications :-)
On Sunday I ordered a CD-Rom in the states with a English-Polish language course on it. And got a mail on sunday evening that it was processed and would be delivered through UPS. With my tracking number, since then, I've been tracking the progress of the delivery and as I just noticed it has been delivered to my house this morning. Chapeau! It took the parcel 3 days to get from the States to my house, and it even went from Utrecht to Cologne in Germany and back to Utrecht on one day. Here a screenshot of the delivery process.
