I think Samsung should leave the PR theatrics to a company who knows what they're doing. Banning your product from your employees comes off as cheap *and* dumb. Hey, we treat our employees like thieves, so buy our stuff! Right.

I dunno. Those chicks look alright, but what's up with those weird fingernails? Did they stick them on the wrong way when they woke up or something? I'm just sayin'...

Wait a minute. The article referenced thinking, but the human actor in the test did something physical. So it's not just transmission of thought here, but thoughts associated with actions. Conceivably you have to be thinking about the action while you're doing it in order for the MRI reading to take place. And let's not forget the practicality of this. Are you really going to sit under an MRI machine all day just to get a robot to ape your actions?

This is a computer, right? It does serious computer-y things, right? What's up with the Fisher-Price look? Sure maybe 6-year olds will like them, but what about teenagers? Or will there be a different model for them? I'm sure that they will need to be skinnable, because who knows what orange means in the local cultures? Yeah yeah I know, stop asking questions...

Yeah, Dual is right down there with Pyle. They're one of the bottom-feeders in the auto audio industry. Yes, they've done something no-one else has done (curious), but they've done it in typical Dual style. Gack. I wouldn't wish this even on the most obsessive Windows fanboi.

If you shell out that much for a console, you deserve the derision you get, especially in a few months when the price will be 1/3rd of that.

Is it charity? Is it profit? I think the business model here is a bit wacked. For the truly poor, $300 is probably a year's work. The cyber cafes serve up internet access; the universities allow for learning skills. So what is this, but a way to make money and hang a continuing debt around the folks that probably understand financing the least? This comes off as a cynical way to exploit the poor, if you ask me.

I agree with #14. (Geez, does that sound Prisoner-esque or what?) Seriously, this one has the color scheme, the design, and the features that make for a good product. I can see this going along to pick-up games and at the beach and stuff.

It's a bit short, but it exudes simplicity, elegance, and ease-of-use. It looks very curvy and kind of retro. If they made it in a black/chrome color scheme, I'd think about getting one. As it stands, the single color does make it look a wee bit metro.

What is the target market for these devices? I'm curious. People who want watches as status symbols (think: upper management) don't care about tech. The geeks want more functionality than you can fit into five buttons. What, do you really want to try to surf the Net on one of these things? What the heck?
