    Overhyped, overpriced videophone that won't sell.

    If you have a broadband connection and a laptop, why on earth would you need this? The thing doesn't even use encryption.

    I've seen a lot of videophones come and go. Just because it uses Linux, doesn't make it better.

    Ok, it does make it better, but would you buy one?
