Mr. TearsInHeaven, I'm real big on General Magic - GMGC. They have the industry's best Voice User Interface (VUI). This is much more than speech recognition. GMGC has a deal with GM to provide VUI access to their Onstar system, the internet & hands free phone calls. The Onstar deal includes AOL for internet content, Bell Atlantic for the nationwide footprint as well as developing a separate wireless phone that will allow you to take complete Onstar access with you in the removable phone. It only makes sense that QCOM will be involved in this end, since Bell Atlantic is CDMA & QCOM has the SnapTrack GPS chip. There are other applications that currently use GMGC's magicTalk platform (VUI). GMGC does have ties to QCOM via a partnership with Wireless Knowledge FWIW. I would be glad to expand on this if you or others are interested. w2

Good Morning Clapie: I too am enamored by tech. There was something I saw in one of the journals that was developed by Kodak and Samsung (or was in Sanyo?) which is a flat panel color screen what uses an organic substrate that exhibits electoluminesence. The advantage of this medium as opossed to TFT panels is that it doesn't require back lighting thereby saving on battery life. If I come across it again, I;ll try to find the name of this product. The illustration shows a flat panel with a bright color image. Just thought I would add this tidbit. David
