I don't believe Robert Mulhall tweets, despite my gentle prodding on the internal social network. In fact, I only know of one other in the group who tweets - @irishdeafkids

Saw that today, and thought it was superior to the usual futuristic visioneering.

Hello Jaikuland.... man it's been too long! That Eee Top is proudly wearing a dozen sets of fingerprints after getting all the attention it craved in it's neon blue corner of the Absolute.

@topgold no problem, but I'm not sure I get it. I was going to add it to my only blog too but then thought - isn't just a glorified MyBlogLog at the moment? What else can it do?

I got the Asus AiGuru SV1 Videophone over the weekend and love it.... when it's working. Unfortunately I think it will require a firmware update in order to maintain a reliable wifi connection. I haven't used it just for audio calls but the video calls are really very good quality.

Having seen how the kids at Gaelscoil.com take to an interactive touch whiteboard I have no doubt but that multi-touch will be a fundamental element of the UI going forward. Observing one 8 year old build a model house in Sketchup by pushing and pulling surfaces with his fingers, just as he might with play-doh, convinced me of this.
I used to give PC lessons a few years ago and remember vividly the trouble I had teaching one 50-year old how to use a mouse. This lady was plenty smart and used to be a secretary before she became a mother but she'd never actually seen someone using a mouse so her only reference point was a TV remote. Thus she started out by holding it in the air and waving it like a wand. In hindsight I wish that, instead of immediately correcting her, I'd thought more deeply about why she was doing what she was doing, and I might have come up with the Air Mouse, before Logitech - http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/mice_pointers/mice/devices/3443&cl=US,EN
Most of Vizitant's customer will have similar difficulty using the regular mouse and thus we're investigating various configuration of touchscreen and joypad control. As such I've got an Asus AiGuru SV1 Skype Videophone on order and will report back later on how elderly users take to it's novel interface.

Best of luck Alex. I had mine (or rather my Yaris did) Wednesday morning and passed with flying colours :-)

@Adventsparky @WillKnott that's that I'm afraid of, I'm finding it so hard to resist watching multiple episodes at one sitting and I don't want to run out of them too quickly.
