GSG Special Edition: Holiday Travel

Hello, all you great geek survivalists out there.

With the holidays here, and people traveling hither and yon to be with family and loved ones, I thought it might be a good chance to share some hopefully useful tips for a change. Hence, here's some things I've found recently to make my cell phone both a podcast catching portable drive AND an e-book reader. Who needs that expensive Amazon Kindle now? (Okay, it would be pretty sweet) Also, a quick word on travel and gaming, some suggestions for both old school and newer handheld gaming, and a car game (or any time game) you may or may not get a kick out of.

Show notes this time are right here...

BOOK TRICKS...
First, you need reading material! GSG recommends:
Gutenberg.org and Baen.com.
You'll also need the Tequila Cat Book Reader, and a cell phone that supports Java.

PODCAST TRICKS...
podcastready.com and podiobooks.com, or find many other quality podcasts at podcastpickle.com
Also, Audible.com's Audible Air, if you have a huge data package. That totally didn't sound right.
That link takes you to the Java version of Audible Air, there are other versions here.

PROMO: EXTRA POINTS, and Doug at Geek Acres Loves Us!

GAMING:
Do you really need this? Okay...
www.ebay.com.
In all seriousness,
FFTA and FFVI are awesome.
Other Nintendo games can be found by entering the game name as a search term at Google.
And, of course, Boticelli
