>>>Then we have the Half-life 2 one-button, to start the game, and

>>>Also, AudiOdyssey and Wiimote - is Eitan with us? You mentioned an

>>>I am also planning (if I get permission) to talk about a contract
>>>game we (pin) are making

>>>and I think we have a lot other things to talk about; e.g how to
>>>utilize mainstream hardware for accessibility
>>>
>>>So I'd say _at least_ 45 minutes for presentation and 10 minutes
>>>for discussion with the audience, and a 5 minutes buffer for
>>>technical issues which almost always arise
