One Device that Does it All

When I travel I tend to carry so many gadgets with me, I even remember on one occasion where I had to fill a form in one country that required a list of all the electronic devices I had on me.
Here is the breakdown of my digital travel list:
- 1 MacBook Air.
- 2 iPhones.
- 1 iPod nano.
- 2 GPSr Units.
- 2 Battery packs for iPhone/iPod.
- 12 Rechargeable batteries for my GPS units.
- A bag chockfull of cables and USB thumb drives.
- Canon DSLR + 6 SD cards (4GB each, and it’s not like I shoot a lot).
Now I bet you might be wondering why would I need an iPod when I have two iPhones… And why two?
Another question would be, why would I need two GPS units?
There is an answer to all these questions (might start a FAQ page to answer them, but not today). Being such a neat freak, I find it easier to assign a task (or multiple tasks) to each device, to shift my brain gears when I operate it.
Now I am going on a trip, so I decided to try something new and different, going minimalistic (inspired by a friend
).
Here is the new and revised digital travel list:
- One iPhone 3GS.
Let’s see how I can survive with only that. The device that rules them all.
