I love how convergence devices and Linux allow me to pack extra light for the show. Clockwise from the top:
- Nokia N95-3 which will be providing my mobile broadband access, live photo stream, and occasional Qik video.
- Nokia N800 (or N810 if I find I can borrow one) which will be providing my live microblogging and hold my show maps and quick notes.
- Asus EeePC running Ubuntu off an 8GB SDHC card which will allow me to post more text-heavy entries. There are four SD cards going along: 2x4GB, 2x8GB
- GoldX cable kit. Always handy to keep around.
- Canon Powershot S5-IS to provide high resolution photos and video for uploading from the hotel room or after the show.
- Inside circle clockwise from top: APC USB battery for emergency charging of the N800 or N95
- SanDisk SD/Mini/Micro card reader
- TrendNet bluetooth dongle
- Kensington USB power tip for Nokia devices
- Retractable USB to Mini-USB cable
- Spare batteries
Notably absent in my CES gadget bag are: Hard drives, Windows, or Mac OS X devices. Indeed, I will be generating content entirely with Linux and with my N95.
Here's how to follow the coverage:
- TabletBlog.com will have all my Nokia Internet Tablet coverage, Nokia interviews, accessories and technologies of interest to that crowd. Also all my Web 2.0 features will be in there.
- UltraMobileGeek.com will have UMPCs, tablet PCs, embedded Linux devices, green energy devices (a new interest of mine) and the fantastic "everything else I find interesting" category.
- My YouTube Channel will host all videos except a few I may try to stream live with Qik. The Qik videos will appear live and then remain there for future viewing.
- My Flickr Photostream will automatically upload EVERY photo I take with the N95-3. I hope I don't live to regret that one.
- If all of that looks intimidating to you, just watch my Jaiku channel which aggregates all of the above (except Flickr and Qik) and includes my text microblogging too.

hello Daniel,
Just a question : I've seen you will bring a bluetooth dongle : is it for your eee pc connection via n95 ?
(how do you connect your EEE when there's no wlan network ?)
Have a good day.

As i predicted - Dan goes linux ;)
I'll be watching your jaiku! I'm tired of watching ces tv and projector news on engadget :)
If you need any help or support from Qik while streaming from CES, just let me know.

How are you charging the asus?
Dan, ere you on Twitter?
Is there any way you can setup Qik and Flickr to automatically post a link to the uploads from yoru N95 on Twitter?
I have it setup that way... Drop me a line if you want details on how to do the same!
I'm going Linux too ;).IT OS 2008 is amazing.And I recently found that I like Ubuntu a way more than MS os'es.Imho MS has gone too far with their DRM, activation and other useless crap I do not need to have since it just annoyance or interferes with my work.As well as I do not need awfully slow and resource hog os plagued with viruses, spyware, trojans...
p.s. sending of this message was powered by n800 ;)
Warning: N810 uses micro-USB (not mini) and there's no adapter for it on sale at all.
