In Edinburgh, in November, pocket means a large patch pocket in a GoreTex jacket. I walk to work and back every day, whatever the weather. Even in summer I'm usually wearing a light jacket - usually of the "pull-over" kind with a "bib pocket" at the front. I'm not talking about a jean's pocket here... I've explained how moving back and forth in the "text" might work (rocker switch). Really I posted here to see if anyone could give me advice about what kind of hardware is available for this kind of product rather than to discuss my clothing and whether other people could be bothered to learn Morse. What I need is a low power CPU + memory, clock, power which is easy to interface and easy to program. I was wondering if people still needed to blow EPROMS etc or whether I can buy a small kit that plugs into my PC's parallel port and downloads code directly into some kind of battery-backed memory... (or anthing along those lines - I haven't played with hardware for ten years, things must have changed). Or should I buy a Psion or similar and interface directly to that? (Means carrying the Psion around too, though - and they are not cheap).
