Cool Sony device paves way for the future

Will pocket-size Sony PC take on iPod? | CNET News.com. The hospital where I will be doing most of my clinical rotations the next 2 years is completely wireless. If only I had the money to buy this awesome little Pocket PC (that runs Windows XP Pro, yeah, I know), I'd be tapping away, perusing patient records right at the bedside.

I wonder how this change in technology will affect the demands on med students. Before, if there were any questions about a patient's conditions, we'd be given time to look it up, right? Now, with the advent of instant information at one's fingertips, it would be expected of us to find and relay the information immediately.

I had one of those mornings where it was difficult to get up, not because I was tired, but because I was dreaming. I had a dream about work and needed to finish a certain task. Well, needless to say, I didn't finish it and didn't want to get up until I had. If this has any meaning, it probably means I'm stressed and anxious to get s#@% done. Gotta get it done then.
