    ... you KNOW this has to be a marketing ploy :)

    Cool tech though, by all means.

    Okay, yes this is somewhat offtopic, but am I the only one who is seeing this story text render all screwy with Mozilla (the words "demonstrating a prototype" are all mashed over the top of each other), but appear just fine in IE? I would think that if any site were to be sure to render properly in Mozilla, it would be /. Or maybe it's just my comp. I did find it amusing, though.
