First of all, happy new year! I’m sure 2009 will be a great year for everybody.

Today, the long anticipated Bug arrived in the mail. I met Ken almost a year ago now, at EclipseCon, where he did a very nice demo of a new device. Call it LEGO for adults. The box contains hotpluggable hardware modules, such as motion sensors, a touch screen, a GPS locator, a generic I/O board for custom extensions which makes the hardware as dynamic as the software inside. That software, of course, is OSGi based, so there is full modularity there too. Add a well designed SDK for developing and deploying bundles for the system and you have a system that is very appealing to developers and can be used for all kinds of technology demos. Today’s blog ends with a nice picture of the opened box, showing some of the goodies inside. Expect more in depth articles in the near future!
