Hipster PDA +Nano
So here is an interesting thought....
I love the idea of the hipster PDA from 43Folders/Merlin Mann. But, I always want to add a technology bit, and pre-iPhone, I've been using the iPod Nano for my contacts, calendar, etc. because it has beautiful integration with our platform of choice, OSX.
Well, now I've put the two together. I use the Nano to keep everything synced, and then I use the cards/clips to do the additions as I don't have a direct interface to program the Nano yet (iPhone please)?
What's great is every time I show someone, they can't believe that you can keep notes, photos, contacts and calendar on your iPod if you have a mac - and they want to throw their Treo or whatever in the trash as it just looks cool and works.

Did you know that you can keep the GTD programs My Life Organized and Thinkingrock on a thumb drive? I assume you could keep these on an iPod too.
I would think you could if you enabled disk use... I've put more than my share of interesting items on my spare iPod space.
I miss the old white gumstick-like iPod shuffle for the sheer fact it had the built in USB connector so it was a nifty multipurpose drive and music player - not that the Nano can't be, but carrying around more cables isn't my idea of fun.
