May I suggest that things like geolocation, temperature, pressure, humidity, altitude, etc. are all classified as part of a "Environment API" set? it should make classification of future tech, as well as searching/looking up and documenting them a lot easier I hope! Audio In-Out and Camera/Photo/Video all belong under a umbrella Media API set after all as well? -- Roger "Rescator" H?gensen. Freelancer - http://www.EmSai.net/
