* No current visible UI for playing notes
** Possible full width, horizontal keyboard widget at bottom edge of screen (standardise widget across TamTam activities)
** Keyboard should support octave scrolling
** Should support lock/unlock keys for creating chords
** Key note letter show/hide (localised)
** Keys should visible change when pressed
** Keys should visible change if physical keyboard buttons are pressed (i.e. keyboard can provide visual feedback for users without touch screen compatible hardware)
* Linking modules not currently possible via touch
** Input/output connectors very small hit targets and obscured by finger
** Input/output connectors don't currently respond to touch events
** As UI is limited to 4 module instance of each type (13 icons max on canvas), increasing their onscreen size is one less invasive option (TODO: mockup)
** Pinch and zoom gestures could be used to zoom in/out of the canvas allowing the user to work as large as they like, here's a video [http://dl.dropbox.com/u/149476/synthlab_pymt.mov example] from Nathaniel LeCaude
* Otherwise, SynthLab is in pretty good shape for touch inteface usage
** Bug: Text hints don't update when selecting modules on main canvas (only appear/update if you change modules using the combo in the slider details view)
