Using Palm Pilots to Help Control Computers Dr. Brad Myers, leading a group of computer science and human-computer interaction (HCI) researchers at Carnegie Mellon University, is interested in studying how hand-held devices such as Palm Pilots can help people with disabilities more easily use computers. The research group has already created a wide variety of programs for business and home users. Some of these programs let a Palm Pilot be used instead of the computer's regular mouse and keyboard. The software allows complete control of a PC running the Windows operating system using only small movements of a stylus or finger on the 3-inch Palm screen. Some of the software will also run on PocketPC devices, such as the Casio Cassiopeia used by the Enkidu system. http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~pebbles/assistive/
