Hello Invstd,

When I referred to "assisted living" I was alluding to two specific projects that I am working on in integrating wearable computers into wheelchairs.

I had thought of this after seeing gentleman in a wheelchair at a Comdex show in Las Vegas. He had a *huge* computer mounted to the back of his chair, with equally large batteries. I started to explore the possibility of using these wearables as an alternative.

Recently I was approached by a referred account that is looking at the same thing, only taking it further with applications to provide text-to-speech capabilities, along with some vision enhancement applications.

With this particular customer we have been exploring and experimenting with a couple of different approaches.

I would be curious about the "retirement community" aspects ... I am going to guess for staff members?
