Hack Plan: DIY Word Processor

Posted: January 27th, 2006 | Author: Adam Wolf |

Imagine this. An ergonomic keyboard with a smallish LCD under the spacebar. It is powered by a few batteries, and has a backlight on/off switch, and a regular unit on/off switch. It has an SD slot, and a USB port.

You type, it shows up on the LCD. � You can save to different files, having one for each class.� You can open other text files, edit them, and save them.� There may even be space for a game or two :-P.

It saves the data on the SD card, and you can download/upload data just like a thumbdrive.

Total cost for a single unit? Less than $50 dollars.
