The Bodymedia is an interesting small device that keeps track of your activities and helps you get fit easier and quicker using technology. The small device connects using Bluetooth so the device is sure to be compatible with all current and future mobile devices. The device might even find other uses since I am sure the data would be simple to extract and use for any purpose desired. “Using our

A wooden box is used to house multiple small circuit boards and reams of colored wires connect everything together. I remember hearing about the Woz designing many of his creations on paper rather than with actual electronics since the parts were so expensive.
Not sure why car manufacturers held onto bulbs for so long. LEDs are the dream solution to the high vibration hard to get to locations that these car bulbs are normally found.
