The day the N800 became friend of the ol' stereo. We use the TV mainly to watch DVDs (satellite tuning: pending). About the library, Quimi uses it much more than ourselves these days. I guess this is normal for busy young parents.

See this, it says:
Portable Individualized Culture.
Walkman cassettes - little magazines (Fred was ideal) Postcard Art.
In the future watching TV on tiny Gamegear sized screens - portable videos they'll be on a minidisc format or even a mini vid tape format.
Electronic books - electronic magazines?
-
it's a pity MICRO cassettes didn't take over to replace the compact cassette disk.
CD is just that bit too big and clumsy for it to be portable culture - CD walkmen things are too big!
The CD bixes are too big.
The other disadvantage is that these gadgets are/will be quite xpensive.

We need a small portable walkman/gamegear sized multimedia machine - plays music, shows TV/videos shows 'books - text and pix'

(Can you see why I've never been that much interested in or impressed by the iPod I was over the idea of the thing 10 years or so before it was even invented!)
