Personal AI (PDA Liaison) - Playable PDA

[Glamurio]

Okay, the project was slow-going, but I made some progress on it. I'm bumping the thread because I'd like more feedback on a couple of things:

• PALs being created via SICC is suboptimal. Ideally, I'd like a new type of brain that only fits inside PDA. Perhaps the new brain can receive data from other brain types via interaction, and then the PDA-Brain can be slotted into the PDA.
  • Perhaps the brain can act as a sort of cartridge. That way, we can tie some unique applications to PDAIs.
    
  • If the brain is a cartridge, does the PDA still have a normal cartridge? Maybe it can emulate existing cartridges based on slotted ID.
    

• How do PALs die? Outside of being manually removed. PDAs can explode, this should probably eject the PDA-Brain.
  

• PALs can turn into holograms of critters. Should they be purely aesthetic, or perhaps some unique functionality tied to them?
  • Different speed, ability to go under tables, space movement (propulsion?), being able to emit a strong light?
    
  • Holograms are made of light, but maybe they could also be zappy, somehow? Perhaps an ability to shock people, but only mildly, akin to stun gloves, and on a cooldown.
    
  • How often should holograms be able to be changed? Should they be changeable at all?
    

Thanks in advance for any feedback.
