His first post was on Make’s super cool open source MP3 player! It’s $120 and is a pretty basic homebrew kit for making a barebones portable music device.

I got an eval copy for the Street Tech Gift Guide and have really been loving it. Really a natural shape under my hand. Control placement is *pretty good* altho I wish they'd placed the left side buttons a little farther forward. I have big hands and I have to crunch my thumb back to get that first button. And yeah, as a travel mouse, it's cool that the wireless receiver dongle stashes inside the mouse for transport. I second that emotion on the VX Revolution.
