PIP-BOY IN REAL LIFE: THE IPOD TOUCH SOLUTION

In other hardware hackery news, larppodcast-er Joe has won today’s master-of-the-obvious award by creating a real-world Pip-Boy out of an iPod Touch and the Fallout 3 Survival Edition’s included wrist-mountable clock.

He is, perhaps, just a few months too soon: with firmware 3.0’s newly added support for peripherals, the promise of hooking this up to bio and, err, radiation monitors (surely?) is too tempting, and a more logical use than displaying what appears to be a slideshow of game screenshots, though kudos for using the game’s soundtrack in the background as a faux Three Dog radio broadcast.
