A Frog in the Valley

Linux Devices has a detailled article on the Netstix Linux PC, the tiny (35 x 103 mm) little brother of the original gumstix model. This is one of those innovations I really like to see, it raises really interesting questions about what could be built around these tiny zero-u devices… definitively a game changer.

As software and operating systems are commoditized, as hardware has been and continues to be, what new ideas can we come up with? I am so excited about these things, I already have 10 ideas for them (in another post, hehe). Once I cash in from my next startup (in a year or two) my next title will be venture technologist and I will invest time and money in emerging models made possible by such advances.
