Re: Input Devices

The pebbles software seems pretty sweet. I may start
off with that as an input device do to the fact that I
have a PDA. The only possible problem I can see is
that my PDA uses a docking cradle. I would have to see
if handspring makes a just a regular cable for it. But
other than that it seems like a decent input device
untill I can afford a twiddler. I want my inital
wearable system to as cheap as possible. Once I get
something up and running I can add to it later on.
