Hi listers, I've had an idea that maybe can help our problems with touch screen equipments. Maybe it's not a new idea but if it is, lets think about. The touch screen could be divided, for example, in 8 rectangles, 4 in the left and other 4 in the right. If we touch the square 1 the application understands letter A. If we touch square 1 and 2 simultaneously, it means we have pressed letter B. Now the question for talks developers is: Can a touch screen receive several touches simultaneously? For instance, if I want to write the letter l I need to touch the squares 1, 2 and 3. If touch screens can get multiple touches at the same time, it may become a nice access for us. If so, the screen can be divided in different ways like 5 cells on the left side and 5 cells on the right. The 6 upper cells can be used to braille pattern writting and the other four cells can be used for other signals such as space bar, backspace, enter and so on. But if touch screen systems still don't accept multiple touches, maybe the next generations of touch screens will work out this way.
