Running Nintendo DS Homebrew

Deeper into the passthroughs
Now there are a few things you should know about the different methods of *Me’s. I will try not to get technical since that would only confuse people new to the scene.

PassMe and PassMe2
There are two versions of PassMe: the original PassMe from Natrium42, and PassMe2. A PassMe(v1) only works if your DS has firmware version 1,2 or 3.

A workaround was made and the PassMe2 was born. There is one difficulty with the PassMe2 and that is that it requires SRAM (memory) on the GBA media that you boot your homebrew code from.

  • PassMe/PassMe2 leaves your warranty intact.
  • PassMe and PassMe2 require an original DS game to work (PassMe2 needs to be flashed to the original game you use).
  • PassMe/PassMe2’s are made by different companies under different names, SuperPass, SuperKey, NeoKey, etc., but if you can, try to buy them from a developer and thus supporting homebrew development

The Case for the Tablet PC in Health Care

What does the HP Tablet PC offer for health care?
Tablet PCs allow health care professionals of all levels to be more efficient and accurate in their day-to-day activities by enhancing their ability to perform a variety of tasks, both at their desks or on the go.

Examples of activities that can be improved include:

  • Collection and Integration of Patient Data
  • Patient Record Retrieval, Review and Collaboration,
  • Meetings
  • House calls and patient bedside visits
  • Wireless interaction among staff and physicians

These activities all involve basic tasks, which are made easier by the HP Tablet PC. Some examples are:

  • Completing electronic forms or “writing” prescriptions
  • Taking progress notes in handwriting that can be converted to printed text
  • Adding handwritten notes to charts and images
  • Integrating several reports, such as tests and treatment plans, into one document
