He WROTE the damn thing, then gave it away. I don't think keeping the name is too much to ask.
That's the whole point. HE GAVE IT AWAY. Now he wants it back. Asking for "the name" *is* too much to ask. "Name" is everything in today's world. Imagine if companies or open source efforts couldn't use "telnet" or "ftp" in their names.
I am surprised that this hasn't been mentioned yet.
Check out the Infogrip BAT. It's a cording keyboard. It can be used one-handed or in a pair. I used one of the prototypes 10 years ago in college. Looks like they've made it even better.
I have CDs I bought 15 years ago and they still work flawlessly. I can't say the same thing about any cassettes or videotapes.
The move to CD from cassette was about durability, random access and ease of use. Quality considerations were secondary for the vast majority of users.
VHS to DVD was the same. (Although, quality was a much bigger consideration this time around.) Why would we take a step back now?

Interactive, or as George W. would say "Interactivfulness"
Here's a few scenerios...
I goof on Dubya's enunciation problems as much as anyone, but I try to avoid grammatical errors as I'm doing it.
614 CDs * ~10 tracks/CD * ~3MB/track ~= 1 20GB HD
So, at $150, he's overpaying...

..that someone should combate cheating in online games.
There should also be work done in combatting cheating, also.
Sorry... Couldn't resist...
Did you bother to read the text at the site?
If you have a hard disk drive, which doesn't want to work, don't send it to Switzerland.
Apparently not...
Doh! You beat me to it!
Now, there has to be another dead horse around here somewhere...
$100?!?!?!? If you win that wager, I've severely underestimated the cash-to-gray-matter ratio for the average Slashdotter.
