That's pretty cool! However, the lego Palm is much bigger than a regular one, so doesn't that defeat the purpose of the whole "wireless-internet-organizer-that-fits-in-the-palm-of-your-hand" idea?

Hello. I'm the one who made the LEGO Palm.
Regarding other LEGO parts sprouting from the Palm... it has happened

It has grown wheels before (that was fun during a large conference call) and once mid-meeting someone broke out a pack of LEGO from Mars mini-figs and the Palm was passed around for everyone's interpretation. This sort of thing has gone a long way to keep us concious during long, mundane meetings.

True, its a little bulky but i keep it in my bag instead of a pocket. I reskinned another object, the MacPC (http://www.beanos.com/~tsoutij/mac_classic.php) and it seems to draw similar attention at LAN parties.

Cheers,
