The whole video is cool about what-if and prototype demos, but check out at 6: 24 for a new way to take photos.

I think its cool watching outside of the box thinking at work.
The Paper Computer starting at 8.50 is cool.

There are lots of issues that present themselves here - mainly how people will stay connected to the internet at all times without paying the outrageous prices of cellular modems

Well in theory, the more people that sign up for access, the lower the price should go.

This is great....Genious...!!! but I see one big flaw...and one big leap that needs to happen first...Cars that drive themselves...otherwise we will have tons of accidents..

Really this is a great advancement...!!!

i think the whole fact that his idea started in 06 by taking the mouse apart... and has grown from there is a total trip!

Yeah, there are LOTS of implications...
* take for example security... the credit card that showed the balanace... take into account the fact that there is a camera looking at the face of the card...has access to loads of data... a fraudsters dream come true.

On the cool side of it, the fact that these people can think that far out of the box is just amazing to me.

Hrm.... So, he has a camera strapped around his neck that is watching his every move, and when he makes a box with his fingers, it pulls out a single frame.

My Pentax W60 recognizes when someone smiles at it, and it snaps a shot of the person smiling.

The idea of connecting information together in new and useful ways is nice, though antithetical to typical business practices. However, the virtual keyboard, itself, is not new: Cellulon CL850 Virtual Keyboard (August 8, 2006).
