www.zipitwireless.com.

Ignore all the shitty internet lingo/acronyms, that thing is actually a good piece of hardware.

Anyway, I wasn't sure if this went in hardware or software, so it's in here. On the specs or whatever, it says that thing can view pictures and tune in to internet radio. Assuming the pictures aren't transferred files from a buddy on AIM, how the hell does it view pictures and listen to internet radio without a browser?

oh i saw this on tv i thought it was like a kids toy.  
 does it only work with people who have the same device?

No no, the whole point of it is that you can IM from anywhere (so long as you have a wifi connection). So you can IM anyone on AIM, MSN, or Yahoo! (up to 99 conversations at once, as well).

It's a pretty cool gig for people like me. Just wondering if I could hack it or something so I could use it as a mini-laptop.



You do know, that you have to pay a $10.00 fee, right?

To use your own wifi?

I don't get that!

Better, off getting a iphone.

You view pictures, with the SD Card. You can listen to Internet radio, by probably reprogrammed web address.
