Hi,

Contour sounds really interesting, but basic functionality is surely
interesting as well since it's not trivial to do touchscreen interaction. Do
both teams have a designer yet?

I will comment on that email as soon as I find the time. This week has been a
little busy but I will probably find some time on the weekend.

I have used mainly Visio, Kivio and Dia for that so far and they all work okay
for me.
The information I need would basically be the different stages/outcomes that
can be reached plus the wireframes that already exist so I can create the
flows to get there.
