			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OK, I admit it &#8211; I&#8217;ve been there before, a couple of times: Ordering something cool, just to let the initial sensation and motivation to actually <strong>do</strong> something cool with it quickly fade away&#8230;</p>
<p>The next chapter in this will (hopefully not) be this thing &#8211; introducing the DIY <a href="http://evilmadscience.com/tinykitlist/100-meggyjr">Meggy Jr RGB handheld</a>:</p>
<p><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3181/3024841296_3f97bf82e1.jpg?v=0" alt="Meggy Jr RGB Handheld" /></p>
<p><span id="more-234"></span></p>
<p>Actually, I bought this <a href="http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596510510/">MAKE book</a> a couple of months ago, but never got to actually start working on some of the projects described.</p>
<p><a href="http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596510510/"><img src="http://oreilly.com/catalog/covers/9780596510510_cat.gif" alt="MAKE things talk" /><br />
</a></p>
<p>Then I stumbled upon the Meggy Jr RGB and was instantly hooked. One very extremely cool example is <a href="http://www.stevenread.com/supermonkeykong">Steven Read&#8217;s SuperMonkeyKong</a>:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" id="supermonkeykong" align="middle" height="430" width="360"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain"><param name="movie" value="http://www.stevenread.com/art/flash/supermonkeykong.swf"><param name="quality" value="high"><param name="bgcolor" value="#f9f9f9"><embed src="http://www.stevenread.com/art/flash/supermonkeykong.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#f9f9f9" name="supermonkeykong" allowscriptaccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" align="middle" height="430" width="360"><br />
</object></p>
<p>I already have some ideas what to do with it, once it arrives (and I assemble and solder everything). Let&#8217;s see how the motivation curve will look like, this time.</p>
