I spent this week reseaching this technology
only to find out that this luddite already has a patent on it. :-(
For once I'm glad I don't have funding. :-P
Does anyone know how in depth the patent is;
is it a specific device or a general idea?
Can it be built?
<growl>
Now I have to invent something to make it different! >:-(
How different does it have to be?
Is there a patant lawyer on this list?
