One of the things you may not know about me is that I have a movement disorder. The more I concentrate on something, the harder it is for me to sit still, especially if I'm learning something new. This makes it very difficult to get an education, where one is required to sit still for 40 or more minutes.

Since I live in Arkansas, I have very little hands on knowledge of a lot of technologies. I've seen Bluetooth and how people use it, but most stuff I'm not familiar with. What I'm specifically interested in is speech and handwriting recognition on a handheld and, possibly, wearable computer screens.

What would be really nice would be a touchscreen like on Star Trek, that attaches to a regular computer through WiFi or something similar.

If any of you have an opinion on any of this, please post.
