Since seeing that first at the PDC 2005, I just wasn't impressed by it. Probably one of those things you'll have to use in order to start falling in love with it

This is a feature I could see being really popular in large corporations. I can't count the number of times I'm walking to a meeting and have to crack open the laptop to remember the room number I'm supposed to be in. When I worked in a much smaller company, it would never be an issue.

But I forget, there's an API for it too, isn't there? So you can make your own little "widget" on it? It's in a C9 video I'll betcha somewhere

I think SideShow has tons of potential.
And... there is an API! If I ever get my hands on one of these, I'll be mashing up all sorts of gadgets. If it all works as advertised, then the possibilities are endless.
