Still learning, Still searching

I'm trying to find a good keymapper which lends itself to the Amtek so I can have a series of settings for different games, emulators etc and as yet have not found anything that's close to usable. If I can get some source code I can build my own but that takes time which Idon't have much of.

On the wireless front I'm not only buying a USB wireless adaptor to beef up the range but I've also bought a Belkin wireless extender so I can get a signal much further away. I want to surf from upstairs in bed and the signal strength is not good enough. Update: With a cheap Belkin wireless extender in place I'm now picking up all over the house without using any external wireless on the Amtek. I was even picking up routers from the train on the way home so in ideal conditions the Amtek is picking up signals from quite a distance.

Found a wierd thing about Vista. The recycle bin is just a shortcut on the desktop so you can delete it if you click the wrong menu item & you then have to get it back via the personalize, icon options.
