As for the “paperless office” it isn’t far now as the new generation is taking over. The issue is not about the current technology but rather the instincts of the “old” people (over 25-30) that oppose to change. It’s not about having a device of specified size, colour, touch-screen and other paraphernalia. We don’t need to define such specification that is against the flexibility and diversity of technology. Rather we need the different options, like computer screens, PDA, e-ink, phones etc.

I didn't realise 'old' was over 25. Crap! I'll have to order that Zimmer-frame and all-in-one foot warmer now before it's too late.
And while I'm at it -- Get off my lawn you kids! With your whizbang new-fangled whirlyme-gigs and your hoojits and watzits and all the bloopety-bloos!
