This thread reminds me of that early 21st century vaporware,
DIGITAL FILM!  Remember that one? It was a little module
you could drop in your film camera and make it a DSLR.
I would settle for that and use a spottie if somebody could
muster that up.

When I was car-shopping a couple of years ago I (somewhat reluctantly)
passed on the Lotus Elise - it was just too awkward to get in and out
(especially for my wife, who has limited mobility in one knee). The
salesman suggested the Aston Martin as an alternative :-)
