I might as well start out by introducing myself: Torben Gundtofte-Bruun from Copenhagen, Denmark I'm probably one of the newest FW customers, because I got my FW TS in late February 2005. Not a lot of people can have gotten FW products much later than that... I'm the one who created this http://fing...

Thy wish is my command Excellent idea, Jeff. I've just created two new forums -- one for FW speculations and one for forum-feedback.

I also moved this thread here where it now belongs.

no email verification step for registering I deliberately skipped that in order to make the entry to this forum as easy as possible. (You might also notice that the main wiki website doesn't require any registration at all.) Your points are valid though, and we should consider to add verification i...

No, that's still not revealed, but you can be sure it will be posted here as soon as clues are given.

Thanks Theo! We're not ready to accept uploads yet, so please hang on to those files and this forum. We'll announce when uploads can take place. As things look right now it might take a week or so, as I don't have much spare time. But it would be around this page: http://fingerfans.dreamhosters.com/...

we should keep this wiki/forum site around anyways I agree. We should at least keep this running until we know for certain that it's safe to return to the FW forum. Even then, I'd be inclined to leave this forum read-only accessible forever. But I think it would be a mess to continue with two activ...

Just to clarify: If you want to introduce yourself, create a new topic for yourself. If you want to respond specifically to someone else's intro, then reply to his/her topic. This will make it easier to see the members' intros here, because it's easier to have us listed by name rather than a hundred...

Just because the forum software offers avatars, that doesn't mean we must use them. On the other hand, it might be a nice personal tough to these bare walls. How do you feel about this?

As an ex-microsofter, I should resent that comment, but strangely enough, I don't.
I thought of a different multi-billion dollar supplier of IT software and hardware = IBM. Thoughts, anyone?

I went through the memberlist at the FW forum and found these rankings. I would like to re-use the same in this forum, just for fun. Can anyone assist with more details? 0..21 = Junior Member 34..93 = Member 99 = eidolon (Note: I have no idea what this is, but user dxtr has this rank. 117 = Reader o...

Okay nevermind then; I'll stick to the ranks I've currently assigned. Which are they? Hang around long enough to find out
Thanks for the replies!

Okay, avatars are now allowed. There are no built-in images, but people can upload (or link to) their own images. Let's see how it goes.

Ken, I'm just curious: would you mind explaining the background for this (annoying ) image? And who's Steve?

Wow Phil, you sound really tired.

Rayheck: Perhaps your pad is not defective after all -- check your desk for any sources of static. If you have a cell phone, fluorescent lights or other sources nearby, that might give you a hard time. Move things a few feet away and it should work better.

I completely agree, and the recent postings prove you are right. Anonynous posting has now been disabled, and I am also removing the offending posts and their direct replies. Other posts in that thread will remain intact.

Works for me too, from work and from home, with IE and Mozilla (on Windows). Did you change your computer setup recently? If you can provide some details, we may be able to track down the issue you're seeing.

The page allows you to upload ("attach") files to this website. Please, go ahead!

You're welcome, all.
I leave you guys alone for just a few days and this is what happens, huh? Maybe we need somebody to help as a moderator/co-admin? I don't know all about forum administration anyway, so there would be several good reasons.

You're more than welcome, it's a good idea. I guess it will have to be entered into this forum by hand, one post at a time.
It would perhaps be smarter to distill the gems of the old forum and create new wiki pages in the instead.

I thought I'd write a short summary of how I'm doing with my TouchStream keyboard, now that I've used it for four months. On typing: I'm still not up to my usual writing speed, and I don't think I ever will be. The lack of tactile feedback slows my typing and reduces my accuracy. I hit wrong keys mo...
