My R600 "internet tablet" and 12.1 inch digital photo frame

[ABCpt]

Well done. Think I will also attempt something like this in the future.

I kinda get the feeling there was some subliminal advertising going on in those pics. Just can't put my finger on it

Lol, I'd also like one. RMIsp, are you thinking about selling them?

you also get that feeling, i thought it was just me.

my daughter asked me if it had plug and play, whatever that is?

It runs XP Pro, I mean like totally plug and play.

@ Rate My ISP - do you have more of these thin clients? If so, do you sell them? What price? Would love to try building something like this! My chick has been worrying me for a while to get 1 of those digital photo frames, maybe I can score some brownie points by actually building 1!!

I don't have any Itona's but I have some other's (IBM's, HP, Itium), the problem is they are lower specced, not as feature rich as the Itona and lack the functionality that is needed to build this like IDE ports (they run off internal flash memory). Until I can get the other's to boot to a Linux distro like SLAX where I can get a kiosk mode to boot directly to browser. You are going to struggle. Thin clients are dirt cheap and I'm suprised they are not as widespread in SA as in other developing economies.

I'll see if I can get the other's to boot to flash drive. Then let it run off the flash.

How? I'm not selling anything. ratemyisp.co.za has long ago been moved over to realreviews.co.za. No third party advertisng on ratemyisp.co.za.

I did it to make things happen. For entertainment. To give other's ideas.

I'll PM you my email address, would like to see the specs of those others you still have.

It's called product placement. I'll be invoicing rpm for featuring myBB

Interesting stuff!

Put this is a tower and one would have one of those PC things like at Vodaworld...

[teraside]

This is very very cool. Rate My ISP, thanks, I really enjoyed your thread

One question though. Do these Thin Clients have any MiniPCI slots or something similar to add an NIC? If not, are USB NIC's available?

My trail of thought leads me somewhere with the options....

[waynegohl]

jeez, i just spoke of this today and said i have not seen Rate My ISP for awhile now and here when i switch on the thread is in my face.

[waynegohl]

where is Rate My ISP these days?
