Recently, I’ve become addicted to listening to audiobooks on my Blackjack cell phone using the Windows Mobile Media Player. Just upload the mp3 files and play away. And the fact that my local library is now offering tons of free downloadable audiobooks now certainly helps this new productivity hack for all those times in my daily schedule where I can be multi-tasking.
I love exploiting product features like this because it not only makes you feel great in getting your money’s worth out of the device you bought, it really is a life hack that saves time, or allows you to do more without changing your current behavior much!

Now all this great content needs to be stored somewhere. My current 1Gb MicroSD card certainly can hold a lot of data, but a larger memory card would be nice. . .

This week, I came across a couple of deals for MicroSD cards that are pretty affordable. 1Gb cards are going for $15 or less nowadays and 2Gb cards are being advertised more and more at the prices where you don’t have to justify the purchase to your spouse. Just make the executive decision and click “buy now”! :-)
For example, a sample deal from buy.com is only $12.95 for a 2GB MicroSD Card + USB Card Reader + Free Shipping. To me, that qualifies as CHEAP!

Even if you already have an SD card, an extra card or an extra card reader can certainly
come in handy when you’re out and about and want to share some video or cell phone pics you’ve taken with you cell phone.

iPod shuffle (PRODUCT) RED Special Edition 1GB iPods with only 1GB are going for $50, so having the ability to make your cell phone a 2Gb music device alone is definitely worth 12 bucks. Don’t you think?

Bottomline is that one really needs to overcome the inertia of everyday routine and find incremental steps to making your day more productive (and more fun!).
