Hey - if I can use it to stream stereo from the computer to the radio in the kitchen, I'll be even happier! :D

Damn. Found the gizmo at Walmart Sunday -- in automotive, not by the stereo stuff, and with the gracious help of a Walmart employee who pays attention at staff meetings -- and couldn't be happier. Used the Dazzle (it's a multi-format memory card reader) to interface the CompactFlash out of the camera (tentatively loaded with mp3s), and tested it while shopping for something bigger.

Found a SanDisk 1 GB card for $60 after rebate, at Circuit City. The normal lowest price around here is $70 and change at Sam's Club, I forget what brand that is. SanDisk offers a rebate on the SD version as well.

I tried your other brilliant idea, and plugged the whole works into the "wart", and am listening to the tracks on the boom box here in the house.

Also, the device seems to look in folders. I had a CD all burned with MP3s in folders by band name, and copied that over to the 1 GB. So, again, kudos to you!

At CompUSA there were various USB flash drives for not a whole bunch of money, but not nearly as large. There was also a $10 box that turns CF chips into "thumb drives", and I plan to get that, maybe today, for the portability, and because the Dazzle is a bit on the fragile side (it turns out ;').

All this is so far cheaper than even an iPod mini that it isn't worth talking about.

I brought TheToy into work today and hooked it to a variable power supply at lunch. Running off a USB drive, I found no discernable differences in frequency stability, fidelity, or range (>10 meters) from 12VDC all the way down to almost 5.5VDC. I only had short (6") jumpers between TheToy and the power supply, so I do not know if it radiates any appreciable RF via the power lines. Maybe I'll try that later this week.

With the thumb drive it consumed almost 140mA, about 115mA without it (in the case of using the connecting cable) - a little bit too much to make running it off a 9V battery really practical.

25ma for the drive, then? Wowzo. Maybe I'll get that kit I saw. Don't need it per se, but hey, I don't *need* much besides water, air, food, and shelter. ;')

Saw this in Popular Science, p 34, June 2005, and finally tracked it down on the manufacturer's website, via some tips on a Mac forum. Called PowerSquid, it solves the problem of too many AC adapters, and (like the MP3 broadcaster thingee) is available at WalMart (and at Target, but they banned Salvation Army kettles, and donations are already down. IOW, Target ****s).
PowerSquid

Yeah - I've seen that before. But I don't think it had a surge protector in it, so I didn't pay any attention to it.

I'd rather use a switchbox that I can turn OFF when the lightning starts hitting (like today; with 3/8" hail, which is unusual for Connecticut). Even my UPS has got a switch between itself and the wall, just in case. (they can blow too) The better switches actually disconnect hot and neutral AND ground (to prevent ground loops) and short 'em all together on the device-side (all lines at the same potential won't cause any bad discharge paths)


Oh - does anyone know of a standalone device that will take NTSC or S-video in and 'snapshot' jpegs (like, 640x480x24bit) to a USB memory stick? I used to have a Sony device (from the old discontinued Mavica series) that snappshotted (a word?) 640x480x24's to 1.4meg diskettes - very useful at work for capturing images off a microscope. Using a laptop with an NTSC->USB digitizer isn't practical or economical at this time.

Thanks, and have a quiet, safe Monday.

Samsung: a Giant Goes Small
Red Herring
Tuesday, May 31, 2005
Samsung’s 4 gigabit NAND flash memory, designed with the industry-leading 70 nanometer line-width process technology, boasts the smallest single-level cells of any chip on the market, at just .025 square micrometers. That means popular keychain USB drives, only recently available with 1 gig of memory, will soon see storage capacity increase by up to eight times without getting any larger... Samsung’s newest flash writes data at 16 megabytes per second, a 50 percent enhancement over a 90 nm 2 gb device, thereby enabling real-time data storage of high-definition video images, according to a statement from Samsung.
Faster, bigger, and more to come.

DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT plug an iPod shuffle into this thing!!!

I lent it to a friend who wanted to test drive it before buying. He plugged a Shuffle into it and it worked for the first; blew a fuse on the second day. Gave it back to me and I changed the fuse and plugged it into my cig lighter (fortunately without a USB stick - so it turns out).

The radio "thwup"-ed once as the carrier came and went, and the fuse blew again. I can figure it's shat the sheets. :)

Thinking about it: since the Shuffle recharges thru the USB port, and USB is 5v while the car is 12v, I'm wondering if the recharge current killed the voltage regulator... An autopsy is scheduled for next week (I'm vacationing this week).

Ha! Thanks for the warning. The Shuffle recharging thru the USB port sure could explain the problem. I like the description of the radio "thwup".

I'm sure there wouldn't be a problem plugging the Shuffle into the thing with the earphone cable.

It _was_ working fine all this time using either my USB stick or my MP3 player/cable. Gonna get another one, definitely.

If I can fix #1 it'll be hooked to a wall-wart power supply and used in the lab - it deserves an easy retirement.

Thanks for the tip!

There's a Belkin (or other) gizmo for the iPods that does the same kind of job, and the controls work the iPod. Costs a bit more than the cute little thing that is now dead at your house (my condolences), but that's to be expected for an iPod item, since iPods cost a lot.

Looks like he's going for 200 orders (pre-order commitments) to build the next run of the CompactFlash cards for the Apple II/IIgs. Also he's fixed a bug.

A FReepathon is under way!

Incidentally, whomever added "LOWQUALITYCRAP" to the keywords is an *ssh*le.
