Oh and while I'm here, if anyone joins up and posts but doesn't see the post they just made it's due to the anti spammer setting. Your post will show up a little later on (when we added you to the safe list!) and you will be fine from then on.

Okay, I'll be over to the new site to join in just a moment here. But first a question if I may. Is passing an exam required for membership?

[Lion Spirit Walker]

[God's Toy]

Hehe GT.
It is a very good site and well worth checking it out and becoming a member.
It's very vool.

[Lion Spirit Walker]

Head Count... How many members have joined the new site????
I did. I did.

[God's Toy]

Well to be honest with you very few members here are tech heads so not many. Lol we only have 10th members so from here has to be less than that!

At this point its still unknown to the likes of Google and search sites like that. Suppose that due to lack of real promo or time investment by the two of us. But hey its there and ready so if your ever passing by your more than welcome to drop by and chat tech anytime

[Lion Spirit Walker]

I do appreciate it. It is a very cool site.
I would recommend it to others as well for it's oppotunity to get answers to tech question and general tech info. As when I asked about interfacing a toy robot with my computer. I got a great link in response. Thank you GT.
Gor those who haven't tries 'the waters' there yet, go in. Ask a question. Sharing information is what it's all about. LOL. And in our wonderful world of technology we can all use a little help.
p.s., Just posted it to my FB wall.

[Lion Spirit Walker]

I had just recently started a new group, 'Member Video Vault'.
I would like to suggest that if anyone should need a few helpfull hints on the use of 'Video Software', please go to W.A. T.G. They can help irregardless of the platform your computer is running on. Most certainly better than I can.
Go check them out.

[God's Toy]

Thanks indeed!




Oh and while I'm here, over at www.WeAreTechGuys.com we just added a new forum called 'Tech N00bs' for those who have a tech related questions but don't want those unber geeky answers! Now you don't have to get in deep to get your answer!

[Lion Spirit Walker]

Something for WATG to invent... A flying wheel chair. I actually woke from a dream where a guy was 'wired' into his whel chair which was capable of short, low flights.
It was actually pretty cool. And if anyone can create such a chair... well, I'm certain it would be helpful.
Some additional info... On the back of the chair was an engine that allowed it to function as a motorized wheel chair. Beneath the seat was a device contained within a metalic box, larger than the engine. It created an anti-gravity field to levitate the chair. And the wheels were design to propel the chair once it was air born.
LOL. I dreamt this while sleeping through 'Earth Hour'.

Wasn't sure where else to post this but I thought it was a great idea!!

BlackBerry announced its latest business smartphone today, but with a twist: it doesn't feature a screen.


BlackBerry Dauntless

"We know our strengths — our strengths are email and our keyboard," said RIM designer Elliot Pouce at the press launch for the company's new mobile phone, the Dauntless. "This whole touchscreen thing is a fad. In fact, the whole screen thing is a fad."

The Dauntless eliminates the need for a screen by having haptic response built into the keyboard — each keystroke is confirmed using Morse code-patterned vibrations.

Originally designed as a special device for the visually impaired, the Dauntless (initially code-named the Wonder) found favour with enthusiastic BlackBerry testers who said they rarely looked at the phone screen anyway.

When asked how predictive text would work without a screen, Pouce was nonplussed: "It's QWERTY — what on earth do you need that for? It's been around for almost 140 years. There's been plenty of time to practice." He paused, narrowed his eyes, and said "You're an iPhone user, aren't you?"

One of the most interesting facets of the Dauntless is how the phone handles incoming messages. With factory settings, the user is only notified of urgent messages — these are then converted to voice and read out to the user. All other incoming messages are immediately deleted. "The Dauntless is really targeted at top management — the kind of user for whom communication is crucial, but only in one direction," said Pouce.

For those who desperately need some screen time (or would prefer to read email, rather than have the phone read it to them), RIM is also planning to release a deluxe edition of the Dauntless with built-in mini projector, so if there's a handy wall nearby you can project what you want. "But more importantly, it also makes it a really cool torch," Pouce said.


Dauntless model Mike Rotch is recuperating in hospital.

Another aspect of the Dauntless liked by users in test groups was the ability to use the device without removing it from your pocket. This "trouser texting" capability was to be featured in a television commercial scheduled for launch this weekend. Filming was delayed when, during the shooting, the actor demonstrating "in-pocket texting" in a city street was severely injured by a female passerby, who clearly got the wrong idea. Eye-witnesses said the actor seemed to be trying to remove the Dauntless from his front pocket to show the woman what he was doing, when she began to beat him about the face with her handbag. He's now recovering in hospital but managed to text this message to reporters: "Nitgerfycjunbg Bkacjberrt wabjers!"

The BlackBerry Dauntless will be available on 12 October 2011.
