Might as well build in an iRobot Roomba vacuum and make it twice as useful. You can do the floors and kill intruders at the same time.

This is really not all that earth shattering. We're doing this all the time at large conferences with general sessions for hundreds or thousands of attendees. Using a Folsom BlendPro or Spyder commercial image blending system is very common in this application. Also http://local.wasp.uwa.edu.au/~pbourke/colour/edgeblend/ talks about "edge blending using commodity projectors". If this Engagdet post is impressive to you, a visit to infoComm http://www.infocomm.org/ in June will surely blow you away. Panasonic also has some projectors with built in edge blending; they aren't commodity projectors available at Best Buy et al, but they will blend right out of the box. The real skill however is the geometry when setting these projectors up - they require some skill in properly placing and adjusting the lensing to get the images to line up correctly.

habit - possibly providing a set of proper inputs through a small bus connector and then connections on the dock, instead of needing discrete connections for all these things on the body of the ESP itself.

If sharing catches on (if enough of these devices are sold), people won't be sharing copies of OK Go videos or Britney Spears' new release. Companies and politicians will enlist whippersnappers to seed corporate and political propaganda and lonelygirl15-type stealth "marketing" campaigns. A new lexicon will arise - "I was lonelygirled on the Metro today".

Kozmo for gizmos!

In a related move, Apple is planning to sue Bogen for their use of the word "tripod" or any derivatives thereof.

that's *can't* play worth a crap. And I can't write, either ;-)

Sorry, not trying to be rude or anything, but this guy: 1) can't tune a guitar, 2) can play worth a crap. Sorry, just doesn't do anything for me.

Why bother patching? Who really uses IE or OE these days? I have a perfectly good working Windows XP SP1 (I have not updated to SP2 or any of the "fixes" from that point on). I have no viruses or spyware. The router behind my T1 has a sufficient firewall. I leave the perfectly-workable pre-SP2 firewall enabled. I VPN to work and SSH to home when necessary.

While I haven't been tempted (yet) to try out FairUse4WM, there's not a darn thing that Microsoft can do to stop me. They do not own my computer, I DO.
