we have been using and demonstrating discover on a 2yr old cheap acer laptop for the last 2 months.. I found the trick was to ensure sims is not open i.e use the discover login directly..takes a lot less resource.. On a seperate note...does anyone know what the parameters of the attendance timeline are i.e cumulative or weekly calculated. On a final note..discover presented to 20 schools so far.. 95% take up rate..especially useful on identifying behavioural issues by category and location..i.e bullying.

I have seen the next generation of Emerge from Group Call and i believe this maybe a solution for your school.. It supports ipod devices and will support andriod powered tablets in the near future. The software integrates with Sims.net and allows registration without a real time link..it synchronises with Sims once in range ie. wireless network.. Ideal for on field or off campus activities.. We are seriously looking at this as a solution for registers during fire drills.
