and i agree with you on the modular homes. there are way too many ppl without one and wayy too many ppl spending millions on one!

I was once told by a very reputable source, my buddy Wes, that once you have driven over three bridges, away from your house, that all calories/carbs/fats/guilt no longer count. Just thought I should let you in on his little secret.

How about a product like nair or veet or whatever they are that can safely take the hair off my skalp. How hard could it be to do that. And it would save me hours a week on shaving time.

Well, flying cars already exists; they are called "helicopters." It's just that they are too expensive for the average person to afford. Or, to quote William Gibson "The future is already here - it is just unevenly distributed."

Anyways, here is what I think is long overdue.

A portable radio with rechargeable batteries under 25 dollars. Really.
An iPod with drag and drop. I am never buying another iPod until I have a way to get songs into it that is not syncing.
A $100 laptop which is available for everyone. No, the $188 XO-1 which is not available at that price to people in the first world does not count.
A $50 eBook reader or a $100 E Ink eBook reader.
