As someone with vision issues and nerve issues in my fingertips -- and who's no kid anymore -- I wish they would STOP trying to make these things so $%&*$(%& small! 

I've had Type 1 diabetes for well over 30 years, at least 20 of those years doing 8-12 fingersticks a day.  I dread the day I'm handed a tablet.  I have problems with touchscreens as it is.  Half the time they don't react to my fingertips due to the calluses. More than once I've had to have someone else get our copier to work for me.   And there's no way I'm ever going to be able to read off a credit-card sized screen. 

I hope as the population ages, they take this sort of thing into consideration.

Actually, in the coming decade, I'd be really happy to see a return to common sense, a firmer grip on reality, and the elimination of "buzzwords" in the workplace.  But I don't think that's going to happen.   Tongue
