Aloha Eric, You are a dream come true for many FingerWorks fans and I want to thank you for coming here first instead of parceling then out on eBay. You may not make as much in the end but I can guarantee you have a captive market for virtually everything you have to sell and there won't be a lot of...

Aloha Betty, I can't speak for the others but I am 100% with you in all you suggest. I tried to buy some of the chips from the Orient, but was never able to complete a transaction. I would ask for the price and they'd say to send the money. I'd ask how much and they'd say to send the money. It just ...

The market is flooded! What will we do?

Crikey, Betty may be the Ultimate User with more boards than anybody else. With three working ones she is doing great, but, yeah, broken boards are no good for anybody. So, as Torben asks, How, What, Why? Is it they just don't work or have the cables failed or are they partially dysfunctional? Did t...

Kind of depends on the market its highly variable. But you might fetch enough to get a 4x6 or even a 6x11. Hard to say. The minis have not sold as well or commanded as high a price.

Its cool, seen it before in several variations. Frankly I would get tired standing all the time. What would be the logical extension of this would be virtual reality where your thoughts are transmitted directly to your avatar. For an interesting look at what is currently possible, check this out: ht...

What does this mean?

I put in my $1.25.

That seems a stretch. I suppose it could happen but it would be a lot of co-incidences lining up.

Welcome Ccompbell107, sorry about your loss but also glad you have a backup. Are you sure its dead?

What do you mean by swap out. You can change the virtual layout via software. Changing the layout on the board, the actual graphics on the board doesn't appear to be replaceable. There are no replacement graphics available though some forum members have generated the graphics and if you could print ...

It was just a full wrist brace. It looked a lot like this, http://www.docortho.com/catalog/Wrist-Brace-8-Deluxe-p-19099.html but the straps were different, it didn't have the loop with the wrap back straps, they just went across from one side to the other. It did have the three straps though and it ...

Typically any sort of support will help, especially if worn all the time. I had bad elbows/tendonitis to the point where I couldn't pick up a book or hold a pencil with either hand, only way I could pick up a book would be to press it between both hands. I wore all sorts of braces with only limited ...

I hate to suggest this but with the recent listings of Fingerworks products that are dubious, I have a feeling somebody out there has figured out there are very dedicated and in some cases desperate fans of the products. Which makes them perfect subjects for scams. I hope its not true, but I fear th...

For 36.00 USD including shipping, there is no reason not to buy, buy, buy. :shock: Resellers rating for PC Universe 3.5 / 10. http://www.resellerratings.com/store/PC_Universe Not saying its not real, but I would be very skeptical. 11 out of the first 15 reviews are "Very Dissatisfied". I would be v...

Or someone came into this forum, checked the resales on eBay and realized we are all a bunch of highly emotional, extremely desperate maniacs who will grasp at any straw. Personally I hope I am wrong. Good luck all. If I wasn't strapped for cash and already had three TS and two IG, I'd probably be r...

I have a german board and its not a problem. The Z and Y are interposed, I don't even notice.

Maybe a very big cutout, imagine a 4' x 8' sheet of plywood with this applied to it, you could do fully body gestures. Brings new insights to the prospects of interactive community computing.

Check out this article for another way to reach out and 'touch' something: http://www.newscientisttech.com/article/dn10673-acoustic-sensors-make-surfaces-interactive.html pretty low tech, very low cost. I wonder how FW gesture software could be adapted to use this. One could also build special acous...

Unfortunately Ivan, it seems to be a common malady these days. From the manufacturers' point of view, it doesn't pay to support anything, in less than two years it will be obsolete anyway so there's no point in making it last any longer than that. Most cases, the user will tire of it and move on to ...

Ouch!

Another attempt at something like Fingerworks: http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PG01&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=%2220060238490%22.PGNR.&OS=DN/20060238490&RS=DN/20060238490 Mouseless mouse pad indeed! There is so much interest in this wh...

If this is a hoax, fraud, etc, there is no punishment horrible enough for the perpetrators. Its obvious we are wholely in thrall to these boards and to dangle them in front of us is beyond inhumanity.

Shazaam, that looks nice, very sexy too. How much does it cost? Then there would be the shipping. Ouch. Maybe they would like a representative in Hawaii. I could even stock them and provide a showroom. I've been thinking about a projector. I like big screens. What do you use? My biggest concern with...

WELCOME TO REALITY MONDAY!!

Just to get you prepared, Tomorrow will be just as bad. The day after that won't be any better and the following day will be the same. However, the next day has potential, but only because the succeeding day proceeds the day that ushers in REALITY MONDAY, again. Yayyyyyyy!
