We were talking about Pans the other day...

The subject came up about how personal wireless devices are controlled.

Suppose you have a character with a comlink, and contact lenses equipped with vision mag, for example.

With no other equipment, he has basically 2 ways of controlling his magnification:

1) pushing buttons on his comlink, and
2) Sticking his finger in his eye.

We discussed that most runner want a less annoying method of controlling PAN devices than #2, so most would use:

1) Comlink buttons
2) -
3) AR gloves and an Image link to interact with control Arrows.
4) Trodes for DNI control.
5) Datajack for DNI control.

Do we see this correctly in folks' opinions? We miss anything?

Other funny mental images involved a runner attempting to tune his earplug select sound filter by sticking his finger in his ear.
