I don't know about TOS guessing computer technology... none of their 
computers had keyboard but all of them had CRT monitors <G>

Guy at work came up to me the other day with a funny look on his face 
and a silver thing stuck to his ear.  He said it was a "Uhura", the 
thing was a Bluetooth gadget that worked with his cell phone.  He could 
say "Call Mom" (or whatever) and it worked, pretty cool.
