Did I mention that I once wrote a very small #textadventure #game for the #Sharp #pocketcomputer models 1403 and 1248?
It's called #PocketQuest and you can get it here:

This modular Linux device is an open source handheld with a 4.1 inch display
A small team of developers is building a pocket-sized, modular computer with a 4.1 inch, 1080 x 480 pixel touchscreen display, an an STM32MP157 dual-core Arm Cortex-A7 processor, and 4GB of DDR3 memory.
At a time when high-end smartphones have the kind of processing power you’d expect from a decent laptop, the the “Linux Platform Kit” may not be the most powerful device you can fit in your […]

I'm pondering design for a super minimal #pocketComputer, not a phone replacement but rather a device tailored to do only what's useful to me not distracting, basically what do i need on an average day out when i don't want to be stuck in my phone?
Ideally i could make this modifiable in a way that anyone could tailor it to their own needs and make one, so:
If you had to choose 4 essential features to leave your phone at home, what would they be?

There's an ebay guy that sells scans of technical manuals. He had the PC4 Sevice Manual. So I got a copy.
Not a lot to the manual, these things weren't really going to be repairable with 198X equipment.
This manual also covers the matching cassette interface, though, and I was interested in that.
Hoped the interface was just some caps and resistors, but nope there's a whole IO chip in there. Outputs Kansas City format tape!

A pack of games on cassette tape for my iPhone Pocket Computer would be interesting 🤔🤣

Pocket Z project aims to build $99 Linux PCs that fit in your pocket
Before smartphones with touchscreen displays began to dominate the mobile computing space, device makers tried out a number of different form factors to see what would stick. There were stylus-driven devices like the Apple Newton and Palm Pilot, thumb keyboard devices like the BlackBerry line of phones, and mini-laptops like the Psion Series 5mx and HP Jornada […]

Raspberry Pi-powered ShaRPiKeebo pocket computer is almost ready to ship (two years after crowdfunding)
The ShaRPiKeebo is a pocket-sized computer board with a display, keyboard, game controller keys, and an incredibly geeky design: it’s basically a printed circuit board with tacked-on keys, ports, and buttons. And the board is meant to be powered by a Raspberry Pi Zero, which acts as the brains of the portable computer kit.
When the developers behind the […] -
I was wondering old dot matrix LCD displays still exist... I mean the ones we had in old #pocketcomputer s. I'd love to experiment a #lowres interface with the #raspberry #pi4 .
320x200 with backlit would be nice for my next cyberdeck iteration ♥️
