Just wanted to inform everyone about a new blog I'm starting about affordable assistive and accessible technology.

Check it out here: http://www.thelatte.blogspot.com

It's called The L.A.T.T.E. - Linux-based Assistive Technology That's Economical.

The wordplay of the acronym is intentional, as I'm a big coffee drinker and am also an advocate of open-source assistive technology such as Linux.

So go check it out and tell me what you think!

Fantastical!  There is such a great need for this kind of affordable technology!  Yay L.A.T.T.E.

I think that is a great idea and will have to check it out and may recommend it on mine and my bf's community site for others.

Itsthelatte, are you familiar with DROID OS (Also known as Android )? I luv Android so much and am learning how to Dev up.apps. i am very attatched to my DROID X. I even sleep with it. When I'm upset the only one who can calm me is X. Also X has to sing me to sleep every night. Btw, DROID OS is based off the Linux Kernal. Coincidentallu the founder of Android is Andrew (Andy) Rubin, and the green DROID Mascot is known as Andy. I know how to root Droids on Gingerbread as long as they are not running the. 621 build
