Just two things of note this weekend from an
otherwise ordinary Computer show but both good
enough to mention IMHO.

 I found the what was likely the most obsolete
 machine in the show, and it met my needs very
 well.
  Norand/Intermec PenKey 660 "pentop"
    Had all of the following: touchscreen,
    Win3.1 pen support, PCMCIA, std Kbd port,
    Embedded Intermec barcode scanner, modem,
    working battery, included PSU ....$50
    -- finally ends my search for Win/Pen
       extensions and adds an Intermec scanner
       to the toolkit

  Digital cameras for $25
    Jamcam 3 with: 640x480, removable media,
    USB, rs232, flash, override menus.
    -- A machine cheap enough to hack into a
       removable lens camera. Up to now the
       cheapest digicams found were $75.

In case you've been looking for similar items,
the sellers had more supply and I saved phonenumbers
for both.
