It seems that putting the price of the games at US$40 is just promoting Piracy. They just don't seem to realise that if the price dropped then so would piracy. You'll never get rid of piracy but it would help! Same goes for DVD's & CD's.
After working in a department that looked after 3500 laptops, the locks are just a deterant even if they are the best avaliable. We found most notebooks were the weakest part of the link with the theif snapping the case and leaving a small portion of the casing behind with the lock. From the laptops recovered from the theft we noticed that the broken casing where the lock used to be wasn't at all noticable leaving the notebook in a resellable condition.

Until they have a better 'socket' to connect the locks to there's no real point in spending a large amount of cash on a lock like this even if it's the worlds best.
to elaborate on 'mcspacebar's comments, from the drawings it would appear that the wheel hub contains the motor and the tyre is bolted to the outsite of the wheel hub/motor. Not a remarkably different design of type from what we have now just different to hold the motor and brakes. This would make the type just as easy to change and just as light as current cars.

I'd love to see this in cars sooner rather than later. Anything that gets rid of the use of petrol/gas is a great idea.

This stuff is old tech. I install and service machines that can do both of these. Toshiba, Konica Minolta and Kyocera photocopiers can all scan to e-mail (as PDF and TIFF) and can fax as well as be your printer and copier. While all of them allow you to use the "internet-fax" option to send docs from copier-to-copier, the newer ones will allow you to recieve the faxes to a network location and will even sort based on the TTI.

We even go as far as setting up 1 touch systems that allow you to scan to an e-mail address as .pdf, .doc, .xls and more that's also been ocr'd on the fly!

The only thing I can see here that Sharp is doing that's different is their marketing approach of putting it in to something the size of a normal fax machine.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
