fingerprint
 

id imagine that the limitation would be that most touch screens arent sensitive enough, but is there any application that could use fingerprint recognition on ppc with touch screen.

mine is the titan, just wondering if theres anything out there.

thanks

i have never ever even thought about that, but i would certainly love it. i imagine that if it was sensitive enough to read your fingerprint that it would be going off every time something touched it though. but hey i could be way off base, get to work on it ;)

hmmm.....i have never thought of it either?
i know for a fact that our touchscreens arent....but....
the iphone is heat sensored....can anyone with an iphone find out to see if this works?

the HTC P6500 has the software built in, is there a way to rip it and rewrite it?

Re: fingerprint
 

I too would be interested in that!!

Re: fingerprint
 

ripping the software wouldnt be a good idea cuz it wont work the same as it would work on 6500.....and i dun think ppc touch screen phones are capable of doing that....may be an iphone would...

Re: fingerprint
 

you all are talking about the touch screen but how smart has the touch pros camera proved to be. that could be another way of doing things or like the face recognition on some computers that might be cool to.

I'm just hoping someone can make a barcode scanner app for us, like the G1's have. Then have it cross-check prices online and locally....

That G1 is pretty slick. I can pretty much guarantee that the fingerprint won't work on our devices though. I would doubt the Iphone could even distinguish the details of the fingerprint from the screen.

seems like you guys failed to notice what i noticed... lol... it doesn't use the screen as a fingerprint device. it uses that little gold bar. at the bottom. its just like the thinkpads w/ the finger print passwords and the security hard drives they sell at the electronic stores.

I'm diggin that phone. 2SD slots, fingerprint scanner an remote wipe, slightly paranoid yet still... nice.

Re: fingerprint
 

Seems like you failed to notice that we're not talking about putting it on the phone that already has it.... :scratch:

The iphone, Touch Pro, Titan etc don't have that fingerprint reader.

Re: fingerprint
 

I believe this app is available from the "free/demo software" link on the homepage when you first run Opera on the TP.

Re: fingerprint
 

you failed to notice the point. the point was thbat you cant use the touch screen for that type of application. the screen isnt sensitive enough. it it cannot be used on the tp. even that phone needs seperate hardware. its all im saying. i guess they havnt made a screen that sensisitve yet that can also be 640 x 480 res.

Re: fingerprint
 

you've all failed to notice, by failing to notice you've failed to notice who failed what when noticing what and failing notice. now do not fail notice to notice these fails again.

Re: fingerprint
 

LOL good point
