That certaintly would be a valuable one. There is a plugin for Firefox called, I believe, Webvizum that does it, and it certainly would be worth finding out if we could incorporate it.

Playing more media types is also on the list by the way.

Hi, Larry!  Just curious, do you think resolving the captcha with webvisum
built into the browser is an easy possibility?

Peace,

| What are some directions you'd like to see this product move toward?
| Have you got some specific ideas in mind?
|
| I can tell you in the mediam range road, we all know and want the unit to
| include GPS and cell phone capabilities, but we'd love to hear your (and
| others) thoughts.
| Also on the road map are better internet browser, many Bookshelf features,
| seemless sinchronization of contacts and appointments (don't have to do
| anything to make it happen,) math equation editor, more powerful word
| processing, speed enhancements, spreadsheet, database, and with a USB
| camera, scanning bar codes, reading text, and identifying colors and
light,
| but integration with some of the social networks are both educationally
and
| professionally valuable to many users, too.
