When my wall is a screen is the day that I will stop using paper. When I can 'Think and drop' articles onto these screens and layout my documents on the floor, table and wall is when screen technology will truely match that of paper.
Case in point: We have 3 whiteboards in our office (I work for a Systems Integrator so we *should* be able to use all this technology) and they have the next 3 months schedules on them so we can get an idea of what everybody is up to. Works fine. Just go up to the board and discuss changes and a quick wipe 'o the rag and cross of the pen and things are updated.
Compare that with a computer: Crowd around a 17 inch monitor with 3 people to discuss schedules and then
- select the entry - change project code (search routine in here) - change employee (another search) - select File|Save - Reboot after crash:)
Although most people seem to be against this idea I was wondering if any of you were developing games?
I have just downloaded a WAP toolkit from Ericson and the possibilities are great.
I think the US is way behind Europe in mobile phone usage when it comes to add on services (SMS, data services, etc) there will be a huge market for games, gambling and other phone based services in the near future.
