VERY good point about the tilt screen-- I will add that on there because I believe that would be a necessity too. Personally, I haven't seen the EB-MIMD in person. People in my company have, but I haven't. I talked with them last week and they said they sent some production numbers and what not to Elektrobit, but they haven't responded yet. So we'll see what happens. I was wondering the same thing about the buttons on the sides of the device as well! I think having the buttons on the sides is really ideal though. It really extends the functionality of the device by not limiting interface to just the touch screen (especially if the touch screen is not as responsive as say an iPhone).
