I think that this key may be a Perplexian artifact, quite possibly something physical, something we have no access to. However, I would suggest attempting to dig up more info on KSI or Centrifuge, one of which may possibly give us more info if we can get a key.

Has anyone tried viewing the site through a PDA?

a) That way the key would be physical (the pen device).
b) The @import command hide's thing's from previous version's of browser's. Perhap's it acts differently on other browser versions created for a PDA? (so we would need to try more than one type of PDA).
c) On the front page there is a play on word's that I find intriguing.. "Newton's Apple Tart," - The Apple Newton was one of the world's first PDA's.

Ok, someone on IRC today stated some things. Normally, I wouldn't bother relaying someone's statement when it sounds like this, but the way it was posted makes me wonder if the person has PM information...

The log will reflect it tomorrow, so they'll be a transcript.

This person stated that the sentinel site is only for building up the story, and is where the PMs will post IG information and information relating to perplex city. That there is no puzzle to be found here, and that all the site does is provide story.

Now, this would be just spec, except the person stated he knew Adrian and Company.

This arised out of "Is the site static or not."

When someone speaks with that much authority on a subject, they either know, or think they know, something. This person wasn't posting speculation by their wording, they were posting what they believed to be fact.

Yes, but this is more directed at the key being a pen device which would go with the theories about it being a physical device. As opposed to what the other thread is about. I was afraid if I posted it in the other thread and the key did actually turn out to be a physical thing such as a pen device (which is what I was speculating).. then the threads would have intertwined.

Anyways, in the word's of a naked Elvis.. a little less talk about the whereabouts of threads and a little more action..

Was a PDA tried?

this looks like something that could be used to decode the postcard number

but i hate math any suggestions

no that's just standard DTD definitions... a description of different data types used in the XML linked in the post. ie, it's essentially just web programming, the definition of the XML structure
