M, K and I were at the Autoshow 2013 last week. My daughter L finds these shows very boring. It was very crowded as it was a public family holiday.We entered a few contests so I'm expecting a lot of junk email shortly. I noticed this year we did a lot of touch screen typing, similar to entering stuff on an Ipad. I think the old keyboards were faster for me actually.

On the subject of cars, recently I've been hearing of people having problems with locking themselves out of their cars because the newer ones have these sensor keys. For example, my friend dropped her husband off to work one day. The car was still running as she bid him goodbye, but he happened to have the sensor key in his pocket. So she gets to the mall in the pouring rain, shuts the car off, and returns to her car only to discover she doesn't have the sensor key to turn the car back on. (I like my old fashioned key starter even more now!) My friend was able to contact her husband who arrived some hours later with the sensor key.

Car shows are not really my thing, either. And my car still has an old fashioned key for the door and starting - I prefer it that way, too! Valerie
The car on the picture is really nice! I'd rather have old fashion key type for car:)
I'm horrible at typing on touch screens-one of the reasons I don't care for tablet computers.
I have never typed on touch screen keyboards, but with the cramp in my right hand, I guess the regular keyboard would be better for me. As for the sensor key, my hubby bought a Toyota Camry that has such a key. It is very convenient, especially if you forgot where you parked your car. Just press a button on the key, and your car will beep and flash the tail lights. That's wonderful progress!
it's been a long time since my last autoshow
