Interesting .. here too.<div><br></div><div>The students rostered on support duties here do a key swipe on the HP PDA units we use for FirstClass A+. They do this by repeatedly and very quickly sliding their finger from left to right on the button row until the Windows lite OS somehow gives up in frustration and exits to a start button, exiting the user out of the core program and any other application. I didn't believe it could happen until an exiting year 12 student showed me. Thankfully all they have been doing is playing the game jaw breaker. I hear this isnt a problem for the iPod version that we will move onto next.</div>

I have seen a pupil using a keyboard swipe to access password protected sites, software and files.<br>
<br>
He literally 'swipes' his finger across the home row keys on a qwerty keyboard.<br>
<br>
His password is: ASDFGHJKL;'[enter]<br>
<br>
And THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is a keyboard swipe.<br>
<br>
(The kid is not in my IT class, so I take no personal responsibility for his stoopid password...I did have a chat with him when I saw him do it, though)<br>
