Tea Cube & Space Cube

The Tea Cube  (left) is slightly smaller than its predecessor, the Space Cube (right):

The SEMC5701A (Tea Cube) has a 333Mhz CPU, 16MB of flash memory and 64MB of RAM. It is tiny: 52mm x 52mm x 45mm but it still manages to pack a lot of ports including 100Mbit Ethernet, USB 2.0, speaker, microphone and serial port. The video port supports up to 1208x1024 resolution with 65K colors.

Any smaller and you can start wearing your PC as jewelery.

Cool Tool: Foxit PDF Reader 2.0

The free Foxit Reader standard edition is small and fast and lets you annotate PDF documents. No annoying "Welcome" screen while the reader loads in the background. They also have a mobile edition for Windows Mobile/CE devices.

But the best feature of them all; it is stable. I have lost track of how many times Adobe Acrobat Reader has crashed on my PC bringing Internet Explorer down with it. Foxit Reader, on the other hand, is rock solid. I have used the 1.3 edition for a long time and I just upgraded to 2.0.

The pro pack ($39) is needed to save modified PDF files or convert the whole document to a simple text file.

Cool tool: Folder Marker

I have seen all sorts of workarounds in the past too mark which folders are important; renaming folders to start with underscore (_) so they show up first, using numbers or complex hierarchies. FolderMarker is so simple that it is just brilliant; it lets you change the Windows folder icons:

Use predefined icons like "High Priority", "Planned Work" or choose our own icons or colors. A Getting Things Done approach to the file system. Just right click on the folder to change the icon of any folder.
