@ahales, what did you use to program the FPGA? What software? what programmer?
Thanks,
Isaac.S

I am having issues with my keyboard left side. I want to solder a new FPGA on and program it but I am not sure of how exactly to program it or which binary goes to which half. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Isaac.S

This looks pretty good. I am not sure how well it will do with gestures but they are claiming multitouch. Might be worth supporting.

I have a mini if you want to trade.

I have a touchstream mini that has hardly been used. I got it online from a fellow who didn't use it much. I like it a lot but I don't use it much since I have a full size touchstream at work. I would be willing to let it go for $280+SH you can email me @ isaacws "at " gmail "dot"...

I just ordered one. Not sure if it will go through. I got the confirmation and it should ship nov16-dec8. Check it out

Why is there the fw mini on the back picture? Did you change the plates?

I would build an acrylic box or something out of aluminum that can be locked down. It should not be that difficult. Put a hing on it or make it like a cake box lid that comes off. I have thought of that to carry mine back and forth to work, but I have gone to leaving it at work. Of course my office ...

No, there aren't more. It was a private party selling a used one. Said he bought it didn't use it much and then found it in a drawer and decided to sell it. There is one on ebay as you all probably know. Do you guys know if you can put two together to make a keyboard? Did that work out? Thanks, Isaa...

Just snapped up a fingerworks mini on amazon for 159 after shipping. Is that a good deal?

If you do a search for completed listings there was a buyit now of 250 for a stealth! I am so bummed I didn't see it:D

I thought it would be good at first too but you are back to the finger travel. It is a long ways to move your fingers, even more than a regular keyboard. Think of how much it hurts to now type on a normal keyboard after typing on the ts and multiply that. I love my TS!

Hi all, I still have not forgotten about my quest to find fingerworks but I got a new job so I have not been able to pursue it as much as I would have liked. I just stubled across this again this morning. I know the lemur has been talked about before but I am pretty sure it doesn't use fingerworks t...

missed out. Keep kicking myself that I forgot it closed today. Closed for less that what I offered to buyit now too I am looking for a keyboard as a spare if anyone has one.

I don't have any idea of what I did specifically. I think it was just repetitive folding. I fold it every day when I go to work. I am going to stop though! I think what I will do is build a case that will hold the entire assembly and then I will velcro everything in place. I will even create a sort ...

Well I got in touch with a guy that had been on the original fw forum with the same problem. The issue I was having was the connector between the two halves of the keyboard got loose. What ended up working was to press straight down on one connector at a time with my fingers. The idea is to push the...

I just started having this trouble recently. My keyboard will perform the diamond reset pattern while typing. It seems to be when I go near the e key or space and when I have done a shift chord, but not exclusively. My computer at work just fried and had to have the motherboard and vid card replaced...

Hey I tried to find it on the fingerworks forum but couldn't make it work. What are the multimedia gestures for the touchstream?
Thanks,
Isaac.S

Well Here is the beginning of the thread that will seek to document my investigation into where fingerworks went. Here is the initial email trying to obtain information. >> Dr. Elias and Dr. Westerman, I have been doing some research on the fingerworks product. I currently own a device and love it. ...

I don't have time right now but I plan to do an investigation into the university. They are a public university and they benefitted by about 1million from the sale of the patents. Should be able to get who they sold it to as it is public information. We have a right to know... As time allows I'll be...

So check the logs, run an ip check on everyone that comes. See if someone from Apple or mitsu is visiting the site all the time Catchem' red handed. LOL
Isaac.S

Yeah I found this in the fingerworks forum posted by an admin.

"Yes, the whole desk was part of our original vision (and patent). But it will still be a couple years before plastic transistor arrays that size will be cheap and reliable enough for a pratical product."

There you have it.

I tried calling the CEO John Elias, but never got past voice mail. I'll try again tomorrow. Got the info from http://www.hoovers.com/fingerworks/--ID ... heet.xhtml
Phone number listed is for John Elias.

I talked to the fellow that used to represent fingerworks to HP. He said he knew the folks at HP really well and they would not have bought the fingerworks technology. He stated if they had wanted to do that they would have bought it a long time ago. He also informed me that the fingerworks company ...

Quick search at HP just comes up with technology partners. Fingerworks is part way down.
