Sweet, now I can finally build myself that fleet of flying super monkeys I've always wanted!
Considering that it is a nanobattery, I think we can ascertain that it's going to be very small. Also, seeing (no pun intended) as it's current proposed use is to give sight to the blind, I imagine that it wouldn't be able to do much more damage than had already been done.
I suppose this might persuade some people who claim to dislike Intel/Pentium into buying something from Intel's new range, but really, people know Intel and Pentium. Perhaps they should have waited until people get used to their new logo before dropping the name "Pentium" - I can see a lot of people asking if this is the same Intel...
These systems are good for average drivers, but if they don't even realise that they're constantly being helped by them, one must wonder what happens when the systems finally fail.
It's encouraging to hear that people programming handheld devices, which could possibly end up being things like GPS/sat-nav, don't understand the language.
Now my ISP's customer service department has another excuse for being run by Malaysians who don't speak English the goods. >_ (I'm in Australia, by the way:P)
I wonder if the booming number of sales will have an impact on the prices, they could either lower the prices to encourage sales or increase prices to try to increase their profits... Or keep the prices the same... Hopefully it will be the former.
This reminds me of Asus's Quad 7800GT setup tested on Tom's Hardware a while ago, because it's such early tech, on most tests it was beaten by a two-GPU 7800GTX SLI setup and not everything ran properly, either. I'll way to see how this one turns out, but so far, I'm sceptical.
Even if this new development means that it's not necessary to use additional human tissue, I think that many people who already have issues with stem cell treament are still going to find it unacceptable. I mean, think about it, how many people in the world disregard things because they don't know the full story but think it *might* not be advantageous?

Well, the link's down (that was quick...) I assume it's some sort of USB wristband looking thing though... I just hope noone gets strangled.
I'm not particularly surprised to hear that Linux and Unix have more vulnerabilities, but because they're not yet mainstream OSs, they likely get significantly less attention from "teh 1337 h4x0rz" and such and therefore, despite having more reported vulnerabilities, experience less exploitation of those vulnerabilities.

Too bad if, once a cure is released, people stop using protection only to find that the cure has only a 50% success rate or some such.
I'm more worried about the fact that 80 + 70 + 40 = 190%
Only time can heal a broken heart *sigh* :P
But how can you know for sure that the repeated sequences are actually reduntant? For all we know, they could serve an important purpose.

And some people try to say Windows has less vulnerabilities than Linux...
Sounds like the government's stealing ideas from wikipedia.org - can't they think up something new for a change?
Of course, if the government really wanted to conserve energy, we'd all be living in houses with 5.18 square metres of solar panels on them...
That's the kind of plugin that I would be afraid to download for fear of spyware...

Yet another medical breakthrough that we'll have to wait another 15 years to even sample.
That's true, that's true... But I still want some real life 3d glasses :p... Cheapest. Invention. Ever.
I wonder where he got 3d glasses that make stuff look 3d in real life? I could use some of them to stop walking into walls so much!

Wow, it must have taken him a while to find the world's first ever dog!

I'll get the popcorn...
