From the Chron:
"Hewlett-Packard and KQED teamed up over the weekend to test new technology that allows anyone with an HP iPaq Pocket PC to listen to the history of a neighborhood while taking a walk around that community.Dubbed "Scape the Hood," the project was part of the Digital Storytelling Festival at KQED in San Francisco, which ended Monday.
The HP technology, which is being developed by the company's research lab in Bristol, England, combines mobile technology and Global Positioning System to enable iPaq users to get access to information based on where they are."
Soundseeing tours, indeed.
