Hey, Squeakers:
I'm looking to put together an appliance and the OLPC device is
probably closest (perhaps with some tablet PCs) to what I envision.
I need a small, light, tough touch screen, no keyboard or mouse or
hard-drive, but a wireless connection and maybe some flash memory.
And, obviously, it has to be Smalltalk-capable. :-) Most of the interface will be on the level of fast food order
taking--although, come to think of it, I probably need some handwriting-recognition functionality.
I know a lot of folks deal with unusual hardware here, anyone have
any thoughts?
What's your budget? And how "small" - PDA size, tablet pc size? The OLPC XO is inbetween (7.5" display) but has no touchscreen.
I guess Pocket Smalltalk could be ported basically everywhere, Squeak needs some more power.
