Life Made Easy With PDA Interface
It was in 1984 that PDA first came into being with Psion in United Kingdom. A new genre in handheld computer was defined and emerged with this launch. Apple and Palm Computing joined soon by launching their own versions. By the end of 1990s Palm Pilot established itself as the most popular PDA. Word processors, Games and web browsing were included.
The Personal Information Manager applications usually included in the PDAs at the beginning were diary, address and phone book, a notebook, handwriting recognition software, some games and common reference material. Diary/scheduler, Notepad, To-do list, Finance software, Drawing application, Organizer, Calculator, World time, Alarms, Voice recorder, File manager, Printer connection and Data synchronization were added to it later. With the inclusion of wireless connections, the Email as well as the web browser was incorporated into it. The programs that followed were Word processor, Custom dictionary, Spell checker and Spreadsheet. Inclusion of Global Positioning System (GPS) made possible customized maps and directions, and charting the movement as well as planning of trips whether by land, sea or air. The mode of transport did not matter. The journey could be detailed with the starting point and the destination with Palmtop Software’s Route Planner application. All it required was pointing and just clicking on a map indicating the places that are intended to be visited, or even avoided, to get an exact route map. With a few clicks with your fingers you had a route map ready with the travel plan. Its functions expanded with the addition of the popular Microsoft applications as Excel, PowerPoint and Word.
The PDAs available in the market included HP iPAQ hw6515, HP iPAQ hw6900 Mobile Messenger, Palm TX, HP iPAQ h6315, Dell Axim X51v, Palm Tungsten E2, HP iPAQ Pocket PC 2215, RIM BlackBerry Curve (8300), HTC Advantage X7501, Apple iPhone, Palm Treo 755p and many more.
The application of PDAs soon spread into other arenas of daily life such as mobile banking, shopping, and specialized Internet services such as foreign exchange rates, stock quotes, sports scores, weather and maps. The PDA became also a photo wallet, an e-book reader, an alarm clock and a mobile web browser amongst many others. Convergence of both technologies as well as programs made PDAs more compact, smaller and versatile encircling nearly all facets of life.
How do you make a D-link wireless card work under Fedora 6?
I have the CD with the drivers but they are for Windows not for linux. How can Fedora 6 recognize my wireless card. See that's what i hate with linux , I wish things could be easy. In 2007 Linux can't recognize a wireless card.
In 2007, companies still won't write Linux drivers for wireless cards. To use it, you will probably have to install ndiswrapper:
http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/
Ndiswrapper will then use the Windows drivers for your wireless card to make it work in Linux.
If this is a new card, I would take it back and say it is defective, and purchase a card from a manufacturer that supports Linux, like Linksys or Atheros.
BlackBerry PlayBook Dock revealed in back room of DevCon (Engadget)
Somewhere, in a dark room at the back of DevCon, someone was showing off a
bundle of PlayBook gear marked "Top Secret." _BlackBerry Czech_ was able to
grab some pics (more at the source link) of a keyboard case that handles
multi-touch and the long-desired docking station for the _currently_ moribund
slate. According to the site, the dock offers HDMI-out, three USB ports and
even an ethernet jack to let you surf without WiFi. Apparently it's got a
hefty wireless receiver / speakerphone that would allow you to make VoIP calls
from your PlayBook. What's not mentioned is if we can expect to see this
available for some cold, hard currency any time soon (hint: get it on
shelves). On the same post, there's also a mention of the mythical 10-inch
second generation edition of RIM's device, but no photos were allowed -- so
we'll just have to file that under "Hmmm" until we get closer to MWC, shall
we?
