[Electronics-talk] Project Ray/Odin Mobile Smartphone

[Carol J. Feazell]

I think that Ray Project phone looked awesome and applaud someone that works 
on something like that.  I had such dreadful experiences trying to tap at 
things that I swore I'd never go with one of those phones but I could 
actually get this one right on my first try.  Not all of us are particularly 
coordinated or technical geeks, not that I don't give accolades to those who 
are.
