Ok no inline-html. Good boy.. Well as for fitting on your wrist might be a problem as you would look like a super-dork.. But I'm becoming rather fond recently of the Hammer/Nail board. With the nail you can put a small tft on it. And the vendor is extremely helpful. http://tincantools.com/product.php?productid=16143&cat=0&page=1&featured http://elinux.org/Nail_Board (towards the bottom of the page you can see one with a tft) The OLED which they said is even eaiser than dealing with a tft http://www.femacorp.com/Products/LCD/OLED/OLED% 20Datasheets/GM9664A-OLX2NLF.pdf As for getting smaller. The only other choice is the picotux.. But that's useless. And if you want to know why you are going to look like a super dork.. Just look at the size of the wrist usage cases that exist out there.. http://www.okwusa.com/products/okw/ergo.htm If the hammer/nail fits your needs come talk to me. I'm trying to get some small projects going around that device. Good luck.. -- gentoo-embedded@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
