:) I put Windows 8 on my W500... I love it! I love it! I gave my iPad away a few months ago. And I also gave away my Android tablet.

I won't go back to anything else

A windows tablet certainly solves some issues, but what I love about my Android tablet is that it gets 2 days of battery life, is instantly on (because it is really on all the time) Built in GPS (yeah, I could add that easily to a Windows tablet) and the cost of software is significantly better than the same quality PC software. Most of my apps were free. Those that weren't only cost a few dollars at most.

Most of all though, I got my tablet for free as a participant in a Verizon Wireless marketing group, so paying anything for a Windows tablet is more than I spent on my Android.

I certainly get your point though, and I would not expect you to try to develop for all the different platforms out there. Just do PC, and we as users, will figure out ways to have our various other OS's interface with your app.

I made one suggestion for the SDK and have a handful more that I have kept to myself for now that might make that work easier if you are interested, but I have kept them to myself because you are already delivering features faster than I could hope for and I don't want you to slow down to pay attention to my silly ideas.

When things slow down and you are looking for ways to expand the market I'll chime in (few thoughts - ability to, via a simple remote command, switch between ARC and an SDK application with the same EZ-B. Or publish the interface specification so that we can talk directly to the EZ-B without a Windows computer.... My dream is to have the robot primarily be autonomous, but when I need to be able to take manual control, to do it from my Android phone -- but there are options already, one of which I mentioned in an earlier post, but also things like game controller emulation).

Microcontrollers do not have the power of a computer. If I were to build the EZ-B with a micro and embedded pc, it would be large and cost $1,000, and require special battery pack, be in a box, etc. If you require a embedded PC, then use a mini-itx or embed a netbook in your robot.

For remote control, use remote desktop, vnc, or the built in web server.

If you require even more remote control, then code something in the SDK and against your android tablet.

If the EZ-B wasn't $94, I would be able to hire people to write software for other platforms

I think we just said the same thing

Yup Should have said I was clarifying lol. Sorry, it's a busy day. I switch between the forum, business, programming, and eating. It's lunch time!

Thanks for the advice @thetechguru. I already have Splashtop Remote so I will have a play with that aswell. And DJ, what is that window you used on about the 35th second where it replayed the movements that you created with the Finger Pad.

DJ your days must have like 28 hours. We need to make 3 clones of you.

Hahaha, I wonder what it would be like to hang out with myself.
