Slim pickings today. I may go slightly orthogonal if it stays this way, but I'm sticking with just the one blog.
Will your favorite file format last?

>>If you have eReader or MobiPocket books, for example, how convinced are you that you'll be able to use them when you move to a linux handheld like the Nokia 770, for example?
This is a perennial discussion topic, in this case combining both computer formats and media/multimedia formats, including one close to my interests, e-book formats.

picked up on our discussion of Koen's GpsDrive port and did some poking around of his own there, discovering Koen's mention of Matthias Steinbauer's GPE-calendar port to Maemo. OK, I confess -- I don't want to think of the 770 as a PDA. I'm guilty of passing over that one in silence.
But really, which is more exciting, another calendar app on another device, or connecting a GPS receiver to the 770's 225-ppi, 800-pixel wide screen, both of which you can carry around with you? I rest my defense.
