"The GR-300 produces effects and nuances which keyboard synthesizers cannot easily produce. To produce the effect of the GR-300, you would need:

6-octave shifters + 6-compressors + 6-chorus machines + 6-distortion units + 6-phase shifters + waw + etc. + etc. It Is very easy to produce anything from simple or complex 5010 sounds to the sounds of a huge band or orchastra. All major functions are controlled with foot switches and require no hands.
• Small, compact unit (like an effects box) with all electronic-type foot-controlled switching of major functions; good for Iive performance.
• Produces stable effects for all styles of guitar playing which, up to now, were Impossible: hammering, glissando, chopping, etc.
• Totally polyphonic: one VCO for each string.
• Instant and accurate transposing to two preset pitches.
• Duet switch for chorus effect.
• Polyphonic distortion for new clarity, even with chords.
• Synthesizer ON/OFF for each string."

"Just in case you missed it, at Oracle OpenWorld 2007, Dell demonstrated the multi-touch capability of their new Latitude XT tablet PC. Users will be able to use multiple fingers to draw lines or manage several images simultaneously. Kevin Kettler, Dell's chief technology officer, noted that "it's going to be a great avenue for creative applications to be developed around it." Dell plans on shipping the system sometime in the next few months."
