Duke's family out for a stroll in Brazil
On Thursday Manoel Lemos was returning to his office and saw this
very picturesque scene (click on the picture to see an enlarged
version). He used his camera/java enabled mobile phone and took the
picture and uploaded it with a MIDP application he's developing for
a Mobile Photo Blog. When I saw the picture, I almost fell out of
my chair laughing. The similarity is completely accidental. It is a
picture of a bunch of "bean bags" being sold in the streets by
local mobile merchants. Something very common in Brazil, it is what
they call "Camelôs", or informal nomadic merchants.
