Amazing technology. I wish the inventor and the one user would have just
referred to it as an alternative. As a longtime sip and puff chair user, I can
make my chair dance. To call sip and puff "very slow" and "like Morse code" is
kind of ridiculous. I would challenge my ability of sip and puff against any
other type of use for driving a wheelchair, which is what you do with a
wheelchair. The fact that this technology allows for other uses, like computer,
cell phone etc. is pretty amazing. But that can be used whether or not someone
is using sip and puff with the wheelchair. It's great technology. I hope they
keep finding different ways to make life better for us, but I don't see any
reason to put down sip and puff technology in order to propagate this
technology. Thanks for the article! Jeff
