FreemanPascal (11/02/02) - Ralf's TuxPad has inspired me to use the TuxScreen as a basis for two of my projects. The first is a wireless interface to my car system. The other is as a wireless display for sharing access to my wearable with others as I use the HMD. You can find my project diary here.
