Think how long would it take to travel in that lift to geo-stationary orbit (36000km). Let's say that average lift travels at 2.5m/s. And those are very fast lifts...
Mouse? Why they're trying to do something with computer mice?
There's much more bacterias on keyboards, phones and, most important, mobiles (cell-phones for all you americans:). Average mobile phone gathers much more bacterias that anything else around you. It's due to simple fact:
It's nice and worm (you know how it is after 30min of call) and because it touches your face it gathers a lot of moisture and dead skin.
you'll find full specifications for this toy. Like screen resolution (800x600) and refresh rate (500ms for black & white and 1s for grayscale).
So any hacks that can make it play videos or anything related to animations are futile. Other thing is that it drains batteries quite fast - but only during refreshing of pages. So if you want to skip let's say 50 pages one after another it can dent you battery quite badly...
Nevertheless - it's enviroment friendly (think about all those dead trees you read from every day) and if marketed properly (slim chance with Sony) it can make a big change.
