Do you ever find yourself poking at your MacBook Pro screen wondering why nothing is happening?
Ha! Yes. Especially when I'm working on both screens on a project.
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Okay, here are two things I don't like about MyScript beta: It doesn't have a keyboard mode--which means that when the pen is still inserted, it's prompting me to write and it still prompts me to write in my passwords.
I don't even like that iOS show capitals on its keyboard for passwords when it's typing lower case--I'm a little bit OCD about that being absolute--the Samsung keyboard switching over and Swype not swiping anymore are the behaviour I strongly prefer.
I'm assuming MyScript isn't in the typing business, but it's still a big hole for me.
Android 4.1/Galaxy Note 10.1 question: When I log into Google Play in the web browser (desktop) it tells me which device a given app is compatible with. How do I control what the device is named? I have one with my name in there, and two with the default model name. But I swear I've named these puppies everywhere I can enter it in.
Note: I do not have a device name option in Settings/About
If you press and hold the space bar on Myscript it gives you a pretty quick way to switch to a different keyboard. I wonder if there is an app that lets you automatically switch keyboards when in a password field? There is one that automatically switches based on the S Pen.
There is one that automatically switches based on the S Pen.
The Samsung keyboard does. But manually switching keyboards every time I do or don't pull out my stylus is a deal breaker. It makes quick not so quick. I like quick.

Does that include www.google.com/android/devicemanager ?
I'm pretty sure I've never entered any information in there. How would one device be named, then?
Well, I haven't named my three Android devices, so they showed as their default product names. I edited "Thrive" to "dcpThrive" and then went to play.google.com and picked an app (SwiftKey was the first suggestion). At the beginning of the line that tells me the app is compatible with all my devices, I clicked on the green info icon. A list of my devices dropped down, including"dcpThrive."
When I drop down the list in Play, I get three devices, one named by me. When I look in Device Manager, which I've never been in before (nor granted location permission until now), it shows me four devices, one named.
I'm assuming that after my devices got associated to that email address the name was propagated to both applications, but I certainly didn't set the name there.
There are "modbooks" out there that remove the mac keyboard and replace the screen with a touchscreen. I have no idea how well they work. Presumalby you add a blu-ray keyboard if yo wish.
