  1. tulipcc

    The Tulip Creative Computer - a portable Python synthesizer for music and graphics

    Gah, I just ordered one on impulse [1]. I've wanted to build out a WiFi PDA for quite some time now and I like this hardware.

    I'm quite liking the idea of running tulip MicroPython [2] on it, or going back to pure MicroPython [3] and writing some drivers. Apparently something like ampy can be used to upload/download Python files [4].

    Threads could be quite exciting for running multiple programs at once [5], although I have no idea what it means for two programs to fight over GPIO! It does seem as though MicroPython can only utilise a single core [6].

    Beepy

    This is the hardware that I wish Beepy had: https://beepy.sqfmi.com

    By the way, does anyone know why all of these devices use the Arabic BlackBerry keyboard? Was there a particular surplus of this layout?

  5. zamek

    Your Digital Keychain

    porting my Zamek password manager to the T-Track now https://github.com/jareklupinski/zamek

    i wonder where they get their hands on those little trackballs...

    after Blackberrys went out, the only way to get any reasonable qty of them was to buy a plastic bag of like 200 from some random vendor; i was never able to get my hands on a steady supply to turn Zamek into a product :(
