Not sure about compatibility with fleshlight though. Form factor would represent quite an industrial design challenge to integrate such a device onto an ipad. And it might be rather ackward to use, but would definitely give the accelerometer a good workout. Someone could write an app to measure the number of strokes needed to accomplish the goal and graphs this over time (and make the format compatible with Numbers so you could create graphs and presentations showing coorroletation between number of strokes and weather, day of week etc :-)

Form factor would Several apps already exist that set all pixels to max brightness. That should make the iPad a pretty good floodlight. Wonder how long the battery will last in that state.... -- Wes Groleau Heroes, Heritage, and History http://UniGen.us/PGV |
