Several ideas - Watch this video <a href="http://vreo.com/solutions/redtablet.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://vreo.com/solutions/redtablet.aspx</a></p> <p>That should give you some ideas. Essentially, all you need is a tablet computer, an e-signature software program and a TMS. If you are in CA, take a look at Relay offered by CAR. But there are others as well. </p> Ron,

I see the power and need for this issue, and I've read you knock this topic over my head like a rolled up newspaper.

But for someone who's pretty much technologically challenged, and overwhelmed with what I have to search for and piece together to make this idea real, can you help out with providing all the resources that are needed?

Thanks Marc. You and Brian are the best. Pushing forward with my new company to be working with you guys in hopefully a year.

What will change it. Consumers, mtg brokers, realtors, etc are going to have to start pushing for it, especially when it comes to their local recording office.
