Cool photo of the LS800 in a sports jacket pocket#

Michael Segal has pointed me to a couple of cool photos he posted of a Motion Computing LS800 being carried in a sports jacket pocket.

The cool thing about these photos is that they really convey just how tiny this device is.

The photos convey the fact that you can walk around with an LS800 in a sport jacket pocket and take it out conveniently when needed.  Indeed, walking around with the LS800 in this jacket pocket for several days at a conference was far more comfortable and convenient than carrying the usual tote-bag or briefcase.”

Very nicely done.  One thing I would not recommend though is pocketing the LS800 while it is running.  As several bloggers have noted (myself included) the price of the LS800 being so small is that it runs quite hot.  Walking around with the device running while pocketed would probably cause it to go into thermal shutdown eventually.

I've had the LS800 go into thermal shutdown only when it is on my desk running on AC power and I'm using the hard drive extensively. Walking around with the computer in a pocket seems to give ventilation that is at least as good as the computer propped on a desk. The jacket flaps around a bit and the computer is not pressed up against the body as it is in pant or shirt pockets. Also, I have the computer set to turn off the screen display when usused for several minutes.
