One of the main impediments to mass adoption of the smartphone is the limitation of text input through the keypad. The new release of KeyStick, version 3.2.0, for Series 60 smartphones now boasts the ability to allow entry of all text with more speed and more ease than any other input system and it is all done through just the use of the joystick.Whether it is a long email or simply naming an image, all such operation are now quicker and easier, in some cases to a quite dramatic degree.The new version of KeyStick now supports not only multiple languages but also simultaneous entry of multiple languages. This means bilingual people, as many Europeans are, can blast through messages using either or both languages without any need to switch between dictionaries.KeyStick now also incorporates access to data from contacts. This means entry of long names and addresses and even email addresses from the address book can be done with just a few movements of the joystick.There are many other enhancements in the latest version ranging from such things as performance improvements to handy features such as a clock in the status display meaning users can now tell the time without having to go to the standby screen.Industry interest in the KeyStick technology is intensifying with the developer, n-e-ware, now in discussions with manufacturers to both incorporate the system in standard handsets as well as facilitate entirely new devices which do away with the keypad altogether. The first devices which incorporate KeyStick are expected mid-2005.About n-e-waren-e-ware, the mobile device user interface company, is a software house with a focus on next generation mobile technology.
Based in Sydney, Australia the n-e-ware team have extensive experience in user interface and software engineering as well as information technology and communications entrepreneurship. Past projects have included global Internet provision services as well as technology for broadband music delivery. KeyStick is its first product in the smartphone domain, several additional products are in development and will be released over the coming months.Web address: www.n-e-ware.comImages: www.n-e-ware.com/news.htmContact: Kevin Dinn (CEO)Phone: +61 414 565 010Email: e-mail protected from spam bots.
Massage Therapy Meets the 21st Century
San Antonio, TX (ContentDesk) July 20, 2006 -- Massage therapy is more popular than ever due to stressful modern day living, an aging baby boomer population and an ever increasing awareness of the therapeutic benefits of regular massage sessions. Once this age old art was considered a luxury for those with expendable income and time to spare, but today massage therapy is available to the masses because of companies that create awareness in a very different and beneficial way.Massage Heights(R), a San Antonio based company, is increasing awareness in the San Antonio and Austin markets with a string of 10 professional massage clinics. The company has introduced a concept that is both affordable and convenient by offering a unique membership program and flexible scheduling.

An Extended Christmas Animation
According to the blog entitled "Animation" which was posted by Neil last December 2, 2004 at www.eightlines.com, someone spent way too long on a Christmas Flash animation. You can actually view the animation at http://www.tongcom.co.kr/dingani_13.htm. It was definitely enjoyable and entertaining! The animator used the song "Last Christmas" by Beatles as the background for the animated Christmas music video.I must say that the one who made this animation has already mastered the Flash software. For your information, Flash is a powerful software program that can be used to create animated movies that are small in file size, load quickly, and incorporate user interaction and sound. Apparently, it may appear to be a relatively simple program because of its few tools compared to other software programs.
However, a world of complex authoring structures, advanced techniques,...

Interior Design With A Plasma
One of the amazing things about plasma televisions is the multitude of options they create for interior designers. The main feature benefit of the plasma is its slim profile. When switched on, a plasma television can dominate a room, but when switched off it can become an unobtrusive wall hanging.
Of the many design options, camouflage remains one of the most popular. In the living room, a plasma television can be inset in the wall and easily covered by a sliding panel to hide the unit when not in use. That would have been impossible with a bulky CRT television.
The sliding panel can hold a
mounted print and act as a contributing member of the d?cor.
I recently saw another interesting technique used to
incorporate a plasma television into a room's design inside a friend's master bedroom. The TV was mounted with a gilded frame to cover all but the screen itself, and placed at the foot of the bed, on the wall above a dresser. The reflective...
