You may design the folding mechanism so that it unfolds to accommodate different hand size, i.e. unfold more for larger hands.
Additionally you should either strictly limit the weight of the device and thus limit its battery capacity and therefore run-time or add some "feet" to it. Otherwise it might be a bit straining to hold the device for some time.

I am in complete agreement with your comment, "Or better yet an AlphaGrip
PDA/UMPC that offers full data input and mobility." That's what I want to
build. It may be easier to try to meld our technology with an existing
PDA/UMPC than to build an AlphaGrip UMPC from scratch. Maybe something like
an AlphaGrip-enabled OQ0 (www.oqo.com). Or what about an AlphaGrip-enabled

Hi Mike,
Best of luck with your Yahoo contest. I am still learning my AlphaGrip
but am a big fan.
The idea of a more compact, folding AlphaGrip is a good one. I assume
it will be smaller than the existing one. However I feel there are
some intrinsic obstacles for mobile phone computing.
Email and internet have been available on mobile phones for years now.
