| So this is version 2, with a much better fresnel lens.
I should take it to Starbucks someday and see what happens.
Fresnel Lens used: ELECOM P-GML01BK
It cost $12.50 for the lens.

So this is part 3 of the "Handheld Computer mod".
I got an interesting tiny bluetooth keyboard called Princeton PTM-BHKIB from internet today.
I paired it up with my trusty XPERIA XZ3, and put the XPERIA XZ3 on the smartphone stand.
It's like a small separatable mini handheld machine now.
The PTM-BHKIB is pretty interesting, it can output audio from it and has a controller on the back side of the keyboard.
I haven't tried those functions yet.

| You're supposed to type on that keyboard? I don't think a Door Mouse could manage to type on that keyboard!
Getting more abstract by the minute stingraze! |

| C:Amie's VICOUS contempt aside , I have something similar but even more arcane. It's about the same-sized keyboard but its cover holds a Samsung S5 so it folds out into a laptop. I found it quite useful.
But then again, I'm a Door Mouse,

| Thanks for your comments! I appreciate them. Yeah, I went to Akihabara the other day to maybe get a Gemini PDA cheap, which I couldn't find. So, I was like, just get a tiny bluetooth keyboard and get done with it. lol.
The keyboard is pretty good, it's like the old Sony clie's one. (PEG-TG50 ) Edited by stingraze 2021-03-17 7:07 PM

| The other day, I was looking at Japanese online site, and discovered a IKEA bamboo smartphone stand selling for 299 JPY ($2.70 at today's rate ). So I had the idea to make it part of my "Handheld Computer mod".
I will share how it turns out after it arrives!

| Wow. So the actual stand is something you added to the computer and keyboard? Is it attached to the keyboard?

| There are smartphone stands that can be folded, something like .
I just put it between the logicool (Japanese Logitech ) keyboard and the smartphone. And for now, it's not stuck together, but if I feel like it, I can maybe superglue it or double-sided tape it. haha |
