- would you have any pointer on Signature Authentification algorithms (i.e.
- I sign on a tablet, and the machines tells "this guy pretends to be John
- Doe, and he really is so"). Does anybody have any such algorithms

- speed?)?

- I heard (or dreamed) that PenPoint has this feature: when you start your
- machine, you must sign-in before using it. Am I correct?

- Peripheral Vision Ltd. has demonstrated signature verification on PenPoint.

- Slate SafetyPen(TM) utilities for PenPoint has a "power on password" and
- "personalized sign-on screen display", but I think it's password-based, not
- signature-based.

- Without these, PenPoint powers on at the same page on which you last left
- it.
