This is a great concept, but the locked-in pricing nature of the device is a bit of a deal breaker. But we do have to consider that wireless access is included (hence Pauric's fractional allocation of the $20 monthly data fee to Tech Crunch). The industrial design is a bit off-- not sure if I'm a fan of the lopsided, angular design-- evokes Japanese electronics design from the 80s. But this is my favorite part: "*System requirements:* None, because it doesn't require a computer" Interesting vision, and sounds a lot like the celestial jukebox for books. A step in the right direction, but I agree with Pauric that even early adopters will steer clear with such a high price. - Nasir ________________________________________________________________ *Come to IxDA Interaction08 | Savannah* February 8-10, 2008 in Savannah, GA, USA Register today: http://interaction08.ixda.org/ ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
