The renderings look great, but I'm still skeptical on a couple of things. First, that they'll come anywhere near the target price of $200 without MAJOR compromises somewhere, and second, that the software won't suck. Hardware is easy. Software is hard. I'll be watching with interest.

"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... ... Look at carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere. Its not a cycle, its not questionable, its an increase of around 20PPMs per decade. If humans exhale CO2 and the plants exhale O2, humans are winning and the plants are loosing when there needs to be a balance between the two."

But the trick is to do it more creatively. Lots of people made hamburgers as fast food until Ray Kroc discovered the MacDonald brothers had perfected the french-fried potato - and the rest is now history.

If there's no patent/copyright, proceed with your own version! If there is, buy the company. Isn't that what Apple does?

Or just buy the company and put your name on it - isn't that what Microsoft does?

Huh. Kind of a cool idea, but they need to do a better job explaining what it does on the front page. Something like that first image on this page: http://www.doyoupoken.com/PokenWe... . Otherwise people hit the front page, see a freaky cartoon panda with glowy iron man hands, and bounce.

That's a nifty idea. I dig it, but it really would take a lot of people to make it really work. I want one, though. They're so gosh darn cute!

cellphones using bluetooth should be able to provide contact-swapping functionality. its been a goal of bluetooth since its inception.

I absolutly hate the proprietary uses of Bluetooth. If I get a Bluetooth enabled cell phone, let me get my dang photos off of it!
