OFFICE
|
Here I continue to list the
permanent contents of my
Targus pack, also referred
to as my "bag of tricks", "Mary Poppins
bag", "mobile office", and
"OMG, this is heavy". |

My
Lexar USB 2.0
12-in-1 Card reader is
perfect for those "can you
open this file" moments that
seem to come at least once a
week. I like it because it
is very light, has a cover
you can close over the card
slots, and it can use the
single USB + PSP cable that
I carry. |

Ah, yes. The
iPod. It had to be in
there somewhere, didn't it?
The iPod I carry is a 60
GB 5th generaton model. This
particular iPod is covered
by the
invisibleSHIELD, and
then encased in an
iSee Crystal Clear Case
by
Contour Design. I also
have
iTunes installed
everywhere. |

I am also a huge fan of the
Sony
PSP. I admit that I
wasn't terribly impressed
with the concept when it
came out, but a few friends
got some, so I tried one
out, and have loved it ever
since. I actually use mine
more for movies than games
(I prefer watching ripped
DVDs on PSP as opposed to
iPod, as most of my movies
are widescreen). Also, it
just seems more comfortable
to hold for long periods of
time. |

Typically I use my iPod ear
buds to listen to sound from
my laptop, iPod, or PSP.
Sometimes however, I'm in
loud environments like
aircraft or a datacenter
were the ear buds just don't
make the cut. For times like
those, or when I'm just in
the mood for tuning out the
rest of the world, and don't
mind looking goofy as I do
so, I have the
Bose
QuietComfort® 2 Acoustic
Noise Cancelling®
headphones. |

Even though the world is
used to me going everywhere
with the Targus pack on my
shoulder, sometimes I just
don't need EVERYTHING in it.
For those times, I can get
by (for short periods at
least) with my
Verizon Wireless
XV6800
Windows Mobile 6
Smartphone. With it I get my
e-mail in real time from
both my
Exchange server and
Windows Live Hotmail,
have rudimentary web
browsing capability, and
pretty much every other PDA
related function you can
think of. We have been very
happy together. |

There are a few more items
in the pack, 4 USB drives, a
Cisco console cable, 4 AA
and 4 AAA batteries, pens,
and an ever changing
rotation of books and DVDs.
I used to keep a screwdriver
or two in there as well, but
as I can no longer get them
through security when I fly,
it became too much trouble.
Even now my bag is the bane
of TSA employees the country
over. |
