Michael, this is (I think) brilliant!
We could call it... "the handshake" (OK, anyone who doesn't know why
that's funny, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handshaking).
I wonder if we could do an Neo-iPhone handshake the same way? I heard
something about Apple finally releasing an SDK for the iPhone :-)
