CNN Headline News

[MrLightTouch]

FingerWorks was on CNN headline news at 8:45pm tonight and will be on around 10:30-10:45pm EST also. Anyone see the spots?

Doggone it! I was in front of the TV then -- wish I'd known. Wonder if it'll be on again?

FWIW, a search of cnn.com doesn't turn up anything but an IDG article from April 2002. Maybe it'll show up later....?

Yes, they said it may air again this weekend, but we don't know exactly when. The 8:45pm and 10:45pm demo segments were both live with slightly different content--the latter showed more gestures (when the hands weren't cut off by all the banners at the bottom of the screen :)

I saw the iGesture pad demonstrated on Headline News. I was up late on the West Coast, but it definitely piqued my curiousity and lead me to your website. I would have liked to have seen more, but they want short segments. I felt like the anchor kind of cut your representative off, but maybe just because I wanted more information.

I have just ordered the iGesture pad after doing some research on the web and determining that your site sells them cheaper than any of your resellers.

I am a computer science student and I am taking a class right now. There were a few other students talking about the iGesture pad and the keyboard. One person compared it to the interface gestures that Tom Cruise used in "Minority Report", a movie that was referenced a lot in our ethics class because of the targeted advertising identity information issues in it.

My primary interest in the iGesture, besides feeling like George Jetson and being a trend setter, is that I get twinges in my mousing hand. I have been using a hand exerciser that allows me to do contraction and flexion, but the iGesture will allow me to do both.

An extra bonus is that I am currently taking an interface design class and have to do a report. I am going to do mine on the iGesture as a form of new technology and analyze the gestures used as input for the iGesture. We consider interface representations as being either idiomatic or metaphoric. I find the iGestures interesting because they combine aspects of metaphor and idiom. I am curious to see how quickly I can pick the gestures up. I may be contacting the company later to ask for pamphlets to pass out in class, or simply permission to copy some of your website content.
