    It's hard to get details out of that silly flash site, but I did find this gem on the 'business' site;

    If you believe that 8-to-5 should be more than a black hole in your life, Neonode is the place where you should spend it. If you want to attack the average usual, kick it and stomp on it until it gives in and becomes something better, more useful, nicer and cooler than it was, then you are a friend of ours.

    What??

  2. Weird SMS conversation by Malfourmed · · Score: 5, Funny
    Has anyone noticed the SMS conversation here (last picture)? It appears to go something like this:

    Hello. Are you going to school today? Mom

    NO! I am going to John's place

    OK. See you later :)

    Wish my mom was that understanding...

    I agree, it is ridiculous. The screen is 220x176, the start button on windows XP is 99x32. That means about 10% of the screen is taken up by just [Start], I dread to think how much is left after you add the 'My Cellphone' icon, the clock, etc.

    ... it makes me wanna own one of these things, drink a new coke, drive a compact car-du-jour, and do all my clothes shopping at the gap.

    Of course, following this I may need to upgrade my friends with some fresh-faced young dance-party hipsters but, hey, clearly sacrifices have to be made.

    Shit, I wonder if they're going after a demographic?

    Now when you encounter that annoying cell user they can have a photo reminder of where you had them shove their phone.

    NT, .NET, XP, ME, CE, CE .NET... no matter how you change the letters that follow Microsoft Windows, it's virtually guaranteed to suck. That's not a philosophy..after about a decade and a half of bad software, it's damn near in Laws of Science status by now.
