Creative Use of a WIndows Mobile Device

While some may relegate creativity to the features of software or hardware installed on a Windows Mobile device, I prefer to think literally outside of the box and encompass the modality and principles upon which portable, mobile computing is based. I am also a fan of the Green IT movement. Combining these two intentions along with my preference to ride my trusty Infinity recumbent of 20+ years as frequently as possible to my intended work or play destinations has resulted in the configuration shown in these accompanying images.

The solar panels are mounted on the rear rack assembly and provide continuous electrical power to my Windows Mobile device via the car cigarette lighter power converter. This solar-collected energy powers the continuous audio feed of podcasts, incoming emails, phone calls and GPS logging and position reporting. And because the device is fully charged at the end of a long day of Century biking, it continues to provide storyteller entertainment around its digital campfire in the form of portable movie playback.
