Popular Science Magazine have announced a Nokia N800-focused competition. If you win, you get an article in Popular Science magazine.
Actually, we were looking for the ‘and take home an N800’ bit but its not there. Boo Hiss! Oh well, Getting onto the pages of Popular Science Magazine isn’t that bad is it. All you have to do is think of a compelling ‘anything’ for the Nokia N800. This covers service, application, script and hardware and we guess, must show off the features of the N800.
Here’s some ideas the we’ve come up with. Feel free to steal them and elaborate.
- Personal health and fitness integration (with a Polar watch or sensor for example) where the user can monitor and auto-upload activity, diet, heart rate and steps/movement/sport info to a central service that feeds back hints, tips, graphs and advise.
- Hard case with integrated thumboard.
- ‘WalkDeck’ Based on the StreetDeck idea where media, communication and navigation is integrated into one touch-screen interface.
- Digital camera control utility for taking images (can TWAIN do this?), auto downloading to the Nokia and Geotagging via the co-ordinates from a Bluetooth connected GPS unit and the auto-uploading to a server (Flickr etc.)
…and we like the digital camera control utility the most!
