I think this technology is fascinating...

It reminds me of the old cartoon "Inspector Gadget" ...you know, that little girl with her computer book?   ;)


This tech. could open up a serious market for programmers.....I'm sure a lot of Mag. companies will want there own programmers for this sort of thing...
I've decided to take up programming recently and I'm glad... The hardware technology may continue to change but programming languages will be around for far longer, in which I think programmers will have an advantage..

Actually there won't be much programming involved at all...they plan on using standard movie formats for this.

I am pretty sure they will use a media player that is already available.

        Get these small LCD screens, put your own videos on them, and put them around your house.
