I had tickets to see a couple of movies tonight (conveniently left on my inaccessible desk). But, without the tickets or the PowerBook, I had no clue what the movies were called, where they were showing, or even what time they started. Took me a while to remember again where to find a publically accessible computer. I almost feel handicapped without the PowerBook containing everything I need to know and instant wireless access to anything I don't already have! :) Funny, I had the exact same thought after doing the webcast today: I feel completely lost without my PowerBook.

The external firewire hard drive with a recent full backup was in my desk drawer. My whole life is on the Powerbook (and cloned to my desktop box - also at work). Perhaps some form if iPDA (Newton 3.0?) wouldn't be a bad idea after all, so at least my digital life would be with me at all times...
