Contour Cases - We had Contour Cases create a special case for our iPod Touch units that did not have the hole punched out in it for the Home Button. This works effectively to keep our visitors out of certain programs that we do not want them to access. Our contact at Contour is Jakob Beauchemin (jakeb@contourdesign.com)

I'm sure there are a lot more articles on Handhelds so please add more. I'd like to read them before the Conference to get fully up to speed.

Put this link up in the context of the platform discussion, but it should probably reside here as well:

Just added a new 'Resources' pull-down, where I'll try to post some sanitized, generic contract forms. Usual disclaimers apply: this is not legal advice, use at your own discretion, blah-blah-blah, but hopefully this will give folks some ready-made clauses to consider and use. I'll put these up as MSW files so that downloaders can adapt/re-invent them more easily.

I'm only part way through, but already I'm finding it a v.interesting read: a new book on mobile learning by Mohamed Ally titled "Mobile Learning: Transforming the Delivery of Education and Training." (AU Press, March 2009). And, for those keen on the museum specific, chapter 12 analyses visitor responses to a multimedia tour at Lapworth Museum of Geology, University of Birmingham.
The book can be downloaded free at http://www.aupress.ca/index.php/books/120155 Click on eBook.
