Bill Gates creates perfect accessory for Linux tablets

AS MUCH as I like the Linux-powered Nokia N800 "Internet Tablet", I found that people not familiar with it feel the need to approach and talk about it. Bill Gates comes to the rescue with the perfect accessory.

Of course, it wasn't Bill's original intent. But with some oldskool hacking you can have the Nokia N800 fitting perfectly. I admit I could have used any other, but having the Linux tablet plugged into Bill's just gives me warm fuzzy feelings.

What you need:

You need: One old book with Bill Gates's crystal ball predictions

A paper cutter, a pen, a big stapler...

After some old fashioned work...

Here's the result, the perfect N800 carry bag, finally the paranoid among you can use the N800 to scan for open APs at cafes, parks, subway stations and the like...

There you have it. Finally you can use the N800 in public places without being approached by other geeks who want 'just have a look' at the N800 because they don't identify it as any popular PDA. All courtesy of Bill Gates. Add a rubber band for added carrying security. I have to admit, here was my inspiration. µ
