Lime Light Graffiti

Posted By: Ed on Friday, May 12, 2000 9:00:04 AM

From our "Very Cool But Not Very Practical" Department comes this hardware hack that involves installing a light behind the Graffiti writing area and the buttons. It would have to put some strain on your battery but it is wicked looking. Unfortunately, the page is in Japanese but the pictures are great. Thanks to PDAGeek for the link.

Sure it's practical

Try using your Palm in complete darkness and finding the Apps or Menu buttons. This hack solves that. As long as you could turn it on & off when you liked, it seems a pretty good idea.

I've tried to find the buttons in the dark. It took me about a half second. Strangely enough, they were just where they always are. They're big and tough to miss. This includes the silkscreened ones. Jeez, this isn't rocket science.

But think how cool this would look if the case were clear. And maybe the light was red.
