Hi
It weighs 9 ounces (and, no, I don't know what that is in grammes). As
for your coloured biros...
It looks interesting though. The way technology is advancing is
remarkable. Of course, the developers' first consideration is the mass
market, but the gains do filter through eventually - at least in part -
to assistive tech.
Regards
Peter
