This pot is copied as is, I post here as I wanted you to share it with me. Levelstar used embedded Linux to create a PDA (personal digital assistant) for visually impaired users. The "Icon" has a custom hardware design with built-in 30GB hard drive, WiFi, Bluetooth, and USB, and comes with a full complement of "life managing software," much of it written from scratch for blind users. According to founder and lead developer Marc Mulcahy, the Icon is the only PDA for blind users to integrate a hard drive. He expects the Icon's drive to become a "huge advantage" next month, when the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped starts offering its enormous library of talking books in downloadable form. . Instead of a power-hungry LCD touchscreen, the Levelstar PDA for blind users has stereo speakers and a telephone-style keypad (Click to enlarge) Meanwhile, the Icon features close integration with Bookshare.org , a service offering 32...

He noted, " I personally like how 'sendfile' is now totally gone internally, and the kernel now ends up doing all that with splice insted. Good riddance, although we'll obvously end up supporting the old user level interfaces for a long time. "
