International Work
I have been in kollel for a year now but the money is running a little thin so I might have to go out looking for work at least part time. One of the possibilites is international kashrut work meaning I hop onto an airplane fly to the factory take care of business and likely have a little time before my return flight. THis would mean I could use my gadgets more while traveling and hack on them less (meaning less lame-o Zaurus posts)

GPS
I think a very small GPS is one of the most underrated travel gadgets. having the option to follow an electronic trail back to your room is quite nice when you are too exhausted to hack language and ask locals for directions. It is also cool to be able to post lat/lon in blog or email.

Poor Hackers
Being low on the economic ladder I have found my desire to hack on features to my trailing edge or lowbuck special gear is greatly increased. Not having the option to buy my way out of a problem leads to much greater creativity. IMHO a proper education (not just a diploma) is much more useful than greenbacks.  ¶ 1:59 PM
