Heute haben wir, nach langem warten, endlich wieder neues Spielzeug in der Firma bekommen.
TexasInstruments eZ340-Chronos Development Tool
Features:
- Full functional watch
- Reprogramable for custom wireless applications
- Programmer and USB RF access point
- Temperature sensor
- Battery voltage sensor
- 3 axis accelerometer
- Pressure sensor
Damit sollte sich schon einiges anfangen lassen… jetzt fehlt nur noch eine Idee was genau.

I am very much excited about the endless opportunities and issues this could bring into our lives! – Fiat could do it right now!
First up was a walk through of what Ford is calling its App Ecosystem. The company is exposing software libraries that will, in theory, allow any Bluetooth device to communicate with the vehicle. That means Android, iPhone, Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, Palm, and whatever else you want are in the game. Applications will be able to write to the Sync display, have the car read text to speech, receive voice commands, and receive some data from the car. Exactly what data remains to be seen, but full ODBII will not be available — at least not initially. Dreams of a boost gauge widget on your Droid remain unfulfilled.

Still I think you will need to do a lot of Paperwork with Ford once this API’s are available.

In the ongoing quest to create Compact Framework applications that look nice I recently found a good post on how to draw Rounded Rectangles with CF: How to draw a rounded rectangle in .NETCF
The author Christian Helle also has a Second post where the Rounded Rectangles get filled with a Texture
There is also ways without the GDI Functions but those are a little more complicated.

Just learned something new – on one CE 6 Platform I recently had Issues with my GradientFill based controls. – Google didn’t show me any useful hints!
Today when browsing Platform Builder I found the reason:

Gradient Fill Support is an extra Option that needs to be ticked.

Microsoft Surface Travel by ~dj-corny on deviantART
Leider ist das nur ein Mock-up eines begabten Grafikers und kein Photo von Microsoft selbst.
Aber mit 2 Kameras und Objekterkennung der Smart-tags – wäre das für mich ein “must-have”.

As a .NET Developer:
Ever tried to find out more information about your computer’s system?
Ever needed a list of connected USB-Devices, available Serial Ports or Printers?
Ever heard of WMI?
Did you know, it’s also supported by Mono?
There’s a free tool from Microsoft, which is of great help navigating through namespaces, classes and their properties called “WMI Code Creator“.
This tool offers the possibility to create C#, VB.Net & VBScript code.

download here (it’s free!)
