Tools of the Trade: Hardware | WindowsMobile Cool

Hi WinMo Cool readers! I’d like to introduce the first of a series of posts where I will be taking a moment out of bringing you the latest in Windows Mobile news to talk about how I do this - my set up, resources, the software I love the most, video and audio editing programs, browser plug-ins I use, as well as the software I can’t live without on my Windows Mobile phone and much, much more!

Today’s Tools of the Trade post, as the title suggests, is about the hardware I use!

Lenovo ThinkPad X200: I’m a laptop blogger. I love my laptop! I rely on it heavily for every day work - writing, audio and video editing, social networking, research, and more. You might notice that this laptop lacks a trackpad. I love that it has no trackpad. I hate trackpads! I’m a huge fan of the nipple mouse, I wish those had stayed standard on laptops. With a trackpad, I’m always accidentally tapping it with my thumbs when typing fast and ending up somewhere else on the page finishing my sentence only to look up and notice my mistake - grrrah! It’s super ultraportable, too. Which is a big deal when you have to lug your laptop back and forth to work, on business trips, to coffee shops, etc.
