„The device is a customized Compaq iPaq PDA that comes with a bar code scanner, headphones and WiFi connectivity. A shopper scans the bar code on the CD. This is sent via the in-store 802.11b wireless network to a central database and the relevant information is delivered to the iPaq.“

You get a second dial tone, and you can make your overseas call.“http://www.stargeek.com/item/55391.html - Cached

„Enterprises outfitting their mobile professionals with gear now have to consider not only the type of device, voice-activated versus handheld, but also the appropriate attire, mobile pants or traditional kakis. Known for promoting casual business dress, Dockers® of San Francisco will be introducing a new line of causal pants for men next month, to be known as the Mobile™ Pant. The pants were designed with the mobile professional, who stuffs their pockets with a cellphone, PDA, and pager along with a check book and a fat wallet, in mind.“http://www.mobileinfo.com/news_2001/issue30/ dockers_pants.htm - Cached
„As for the iTunes Music Store itself, Apple has integrated its QuickTime features of music videos and movie trailers (this is related to music how?), shopper-created "iMixes" and for this month, a new "Free Track of the Day," a questionable asset being that today's artist is Avril Lavigne...Perhaps you'd rather have an album sung entirely with "meows".“http://www.stargeek.com/item/55360.html - Cached
