G1 Adapter
around US$175
Leica M Lens to Panasonic G1 Adapter
I know I've been talking about the Panasonic G1 a lot lately, but I do find it a fascinating thing. Anyway, I think a lot of people are going to find themselves fascinated by this: it's a page from the November, 2008 issue of the Japanese camera magazine Nippon Camera showing adapters that let you use Leica M lenses (right—and, on the left, Canon FD) on the G1.
You can get them from CameraQuest, http://www.cameraquest.com/ where they'll be arriving in late December. Cost, $175.
Sure looks like potential gearhead fun!

is this guy worth getting?
i think its a very interesting device, and smaller than most SLRs
also can change lense
but its a bit too big for my regular use

ipod for cars
Fusion CA-IP500: Next Generation of iPod Compatible Car Stereos?
It is not surprising that most new car models come complete with iPod compatibility on their stereos. However, most of these iPod compatible stereos usually just have a place to plug in the cable, which makes it awkward for the driver.
After all, many countries have laws that allow only hands-free phones, to prevent accidents from distraction. Yet what is more distracting for a driver than changing tracks on their iPod while behind the wheel? Another issue with this type of iPod cable set-up is theft. If a driver parks his or her car and leaves the iPod attached to the cable, it makes a tempting target for thieves.
I suppose this is why Fusion created the CA-IP500, which will literally swallow your iPod whole. This will allow the iPod playlist to be broadcasted through the car’s stereo system, and it can be accessed via the minimally distracting CA-IP500’s controls, which resemble iPod controls.
Other features include a dot-matrix OLED display, SRS Wos sound shaping, AM/FM tuner, 7-band equalizer, and it has a security code so only the driver can access his or her iPod. By the way, the CA-IP500 can also charge your iPod when it sits inside.

Frankly, i feel the idea is truly revolutionary. i will put it in better contrxt and presentation form.
The key is we need a vehicle to run it with. otherwise, it will end up just a idea on the shelf or being hijacked.
Having itf take the lead still makes a lot of sense. esp w strong players like MS, HP, pccw, csl in the back.
Can we form a unit like 'KNOWLDGE INNOVATION CENTER' under HKITF, say w Science Park and have a team to make this pilot work? or cyberport or Innocenter

网络社会需要民主. Democracy on the web works.
您不一定要在桌子前找答案. You don't need to be at your desk to need an answer.
不做坏事也能赚钱. You can make money without doing evil.
未知的信息总是存在的. There's always more information out there.
对信息的需求无所不在. The need for information crosses all borders.

the book i mentioned that started all my original thoughts are here:
Peter Drucker's Managing in the Next Society
http://www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&tag=mozilla-20&index=blended&link_code=qs&field-keywords=drucker%20managing%20next%20society&sourceid=Mozilla-search
even though its simple Drucker language..
the writing is provoking and esp prophetic at this juncture during the econ crisis..
exploring a field that is well discussed nowadays..
highly recommended!!
