I had in mind a medical assistant who usually works in the x-ray room Wednesday at 5 (where she can't take her phone with her), but suspects that one of her colleagues is secretly searching her desk (where she left the phone) while she is in there. The email would be sent to her close friend who can recognize and catch that person red-handed. She would not need that photo sent to her friend when she has a day off and is at home. :-) But of course this was just one of many possible use-cases. Maybe this particular example was kind of stupid :-), but I'm sure there are lots of useful cases of repeated actions that could be automated under certain conditions: * check the weather report through an online service in the morning and send this to the screen reader so that my alarm clock could tell me what I should wear. * start the music player in 1/2 hour and play my phone ring-tone so that I can tell my talkative neighbor that my husband will return soon and I have to prepare dinner. * leave the phone at home and let it call your friend who works at the police at 23:12, playing back a long story of some personal issue you had lately to give you the perfect alibi while you break into a bank... * ... and so on :-) Peli --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Challenge" group.
