Stephen Hawking can baryly moove anything on his body. He has a device that reads the movement of his eyes and following them on the screen then he can select what word he wants to say. This is by no means the same as reading a mind. In the mind you have diferent people thinking diferent way. This means that diferent people will think difernt ways and therefor change the affect that they have on the particle. So that means that these "devices" IBM is planning on makeing will have to be custom talor these to each individual person. There are some things that all human beings have in common such as body language and external features but the chemical diferences in person A will be difernt from those in person B. A may have 3x10^123 synapses where as B may have 3x10^133 synapses and A may have more seritonin than B. All sorts of these diferences will affect how and to what extent a person has on the particle. So you have to be very carful how you read them. After all, I think that most of us have tried those speach recognision things, and they don't always work between users. God, root, what is difference? ~User Frienly Jason Hipps
