MOTO is a very cool looking place
Do you still work there.
I don't want to be picky but,
The ability to burn CD
Flash card reader built in
2 internal hard drives for redundancy
No really what you guys did really was pretty.
Not as of yet
Although I have looked into it
The kind of problems I'm talking about are the way the Print Manager works
Or, how settings in the print window don't seem to stick,
Stuff like that.
For all of my final printing I go through ColorByte's ImagePrint, which is phenomenal.
Look that would be great
I'm sitting on top a different idea that would work for Power Books.
The problem is that they are just designs, nothing patentable, and I don't really have the connections or money to start up full scale manufacturing.
I have talked to TrollTouch, and Wacom, the fact is I'm not on salary to them, they can turn around and come out with whatever they want, those are the chances I take.
This is nothing new for us we've been here before.
My wife always says it would be cheaper if they just steal the idea from us and we could then go down to the store and buy it, with a warranty even.
My first goal was to build a "Tool" that would do what "I" needed, and it has served me well, yes it is a bit thicker than I would like, but I can still not find a Tablet Slate out there that has a Flash Card reader and is able to burn CDs.
Both of these things are important for what I do being a Wedding Photographer and teacher.
I am looking to update the original post at MocMod with detailed photos of the work as it was in progress.
Secondly, and maybe more importantly was the goal to get Mr. Job's attention, although he has not gotten in touch with me yet, I have not given up hope. Why do I want his attention? What would I say anyway?
The same thing I had said in a letter 13 years ago to Mr Kaplan at The Go corporation (the people who brought you PenPoint) you might not even remember them, but it was a beautiful idea.
At any rate I went on about how the Technological revolution was leaving some people out and how their design idea would open up the possibilities to have varied groups of people (who are too often disenfranchised) join into the conversation.
All of you people are the "more" some of you are the "different" there have been many great strides made in these 13 years, but I am still waiting, because "I THINK MORE CAN STILL BE DONE".
I am a faithful person I say Thank God I have been able to do what I have done so far. I was unable to speak intelligibly until I was 5 years old, my parents had been told that I was "mildly retarded", but I am faithful that Miracles happen and that things can change. I would like to see more people have the opportunities to change their lives due to the technology that is available to them.
Thank you all and God Bless

I am really sorry for all the trouble, who would of thunk!
You know I do have some designs for a convertable with no permenant modifications needed for the case.
Don't know if this would count as a Mod or an accessory
What do you think?
I was able to fit everything I needed with out to much problem
Dual internal hard drives
Flash card reader
Bluetooth
WiFi
CD Burner
3 Firewire ports
Not every application calls for a G5
Listen I'm no engineer
I do not have a machine shop available to me, I did the best I could to get the thing working.
I could not save any more room then the height of the hard drive, the flash card reader case had the guide rails for loading the flash cards in,( I did not want bent pins, or to fumble with trying to get the card seated when I am in a hurry )
Also, I wanted to be able to remove the individual components when I needed to, I had already gone through one bad USB hub.
So that's where I was coming from.
I am a Photographer not an author, I don't need something that is a replica of a typewriter, I need some thing that lets me work with images.
inkWell, Bluetooth keyboard, and on screen keyboard form TouchStrokes all work fine for me.

I am embarrassed to say that yes it does get a good amount of use in there
