Hi Mickey, In reading this I'm struck by the last paragraph, and not the "click feedback" example you give. Someone else has already mentioned SMS notification whilst listening to music, but also my GPS concept is affected. If a driver is approaching an accident blackspot he cannot afford for notification of that to be queued to play after some other application is finished. Stroller. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
