At last!
Birmingham has an Apple Store, a definite shop front fighting for the cause of all things Macintosh.
If anyone wants to know where it is, it's in the Pallasades Shopping Centre...
...Right next door to a certain well known ladies shop 
Nowif only we could find a way of linking the toys bought in one with the toys bought in the other it would make the internet a much more interesting place to be

I know there was a little shareware program available on PC's, you could download along with a circuit diagram to litterally hack into 'electronic adult toys' and connect to the serial port, with a chat client, webcam window and a little on screen display that you taped a small array of photodiodes over and the person on the other end of the conversation, by tweaking a few sliders could effect the behaviour, apparently, of the electronic toy at your end...
