Hi,

Came across this link for an article about the  'Pocket Museum', a PDA  
now in use for the six sites of the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Society  
in Glasgow, Scotland.   The devices allow access to images, audio,  
video, text and the visitor will get instant update notices of any  
tour about to begin so they can choose to join or continue on their own.
