| "Coming to a factory, warehouse, loading dock, or hospital near you.
Grow up and drop the anti-military garbage. (The computer that you so happily use is a result of military/space programs. " ( 7/15/2009 9:40:20 PM) |
| "I didn't see any anti-military garbage. My only complaint is that Predator wouldn't be my first choice for a scifi reference. I would have gone with "The Abyss" at least (couldn't find a picture)." (Sabre Runner 7/15/2009 10:52:00 PM) |
| "Interesting that you choose to go nameless and without honor. A Nythingr, a "nothing," without the right to a name, was one who ran from the battle. I see a useful article, hoping that this tech will be allowed to be used, instead of kept locked away. That is not an attack on the military." (Ashley 7/16/2009 12:35:44 AM) |
| "Sabre Runner - Ah, you're right. I totally forgot that one." (Bill Christensen 7/16/2009 4:39:16 AM) |
| "Agree with Bill.
Although, I still like the idea of basic controls in the fingertips/hand actions.
I guess the military folks would have to take one-handed speed-typing classes." (Jake 7/16/2009 1:04:18 PM) |
| "Jake - I always like to hear about 'unintended consequences' of a new technology. Great thought! " (Bill Christensen 7/16/2009 5:51:28 PM) |
| "Twenty-first-century biathlon: You must hold another man down in an 'ultimate fighting' ring with your knee and beat him into submission with you elbow, while simultaneously, on your Nike arm keyboard, winning a Wikipedia edit war on a topic to be announced by the judges at the last minute." (will make speech-and-debate class much more exciti 7/18/2009 1:48:29 PM) |
| "'Grow up and drop the _____________ garbage' is really unwarranted abuse, aggravating everybody who ends up here and sees it." (hormones say i must insult him back 7/18/2009 1:57:49 PM) |
| "Very Portable Keyboard. I also like the laser projection bluetooth keyboard that I use: http://www.kewlgadget.com/?p=107" (kewlkat 9/25/2009 9:58:25 AM) |
| "Those are cool - here's the same idea, but it implements a virtual piano keyboard." (Bill Christensen 9/25/2009 5:28:54 PM) |
