Happy New Year All!

I was hoping to tap the collective consciousness with a career  
direction question... I'm keen to work on projects that have a  
hardware component as the deployment platform: Cell, GPS, PDA, Set  
Top, embedded, etc...  I just feel better suited to this realm based  
on experience and Industrial Design training... I've been getting a  
LOT of call for web work, but prefer to stay focused on my chosen  
area of expertise.

How can I communicate this to prospective contracts, hiring managers  
or would-be suitors? Is it sufficient to say "I prefer to do embedded/ 
hardware based IxDN" ? Is there a succinct subcategory of Interaction  
Design that best defines this area? I hope this isn't too limiting;  
there certainly appears to be a great call for it based on my  
interactions with products...

It's my hope to influence a shipping (hard) product in my contracting  
moving forward.

Thanks for any input and all the best,
-Dan
