Aww crud. I had half this idea a long time ago. Oh well, as long as people brush their teeth correctly I guess it doesn’t matter. The light in the toothbrush changes color indicating if your pressing too hard or if your not brushing long enough.

Like the Sony Librie But Better
Sweet! A low powered high contrast electronic paper display (EPD) ebook reader without all that pesky DRM crap.
It will read the following formats:
PDF Viewer, WOLF Viewer(WOLF File Format:convert from txt,htm,DOC ,PDF,Excel,PPT,Images,mp3 ets),HTML Viewer,TXT Viewer
Looks quite similar to the one from Sony, except that the Hanlin is a little shy on buttons .I have wondered why the Librie has a keyboard if everything is pretty much read only on them. Annotations perhaps?
So, I wonder if I can get one of these on my next trip to Bangkok…
Catom Teleportation
First off, what the heck is a ‘Catom’ you ask? Well, a catom is short for “claytronic atoms”. That would be atom sized robots that could assemble themselves into all sorts of handy devices with the aid of a computer. Think a bucket of smart micron sized LEGO bricks. You order up some way cool germ seeing micro glasses off the Internet and your computer commands your bucket of smart LEGOs to take the shape and functionality of it. Once finished you pull your micro glasses out of the bucket and start to freak out about how unclean your house is.
Right now researchers are trying to build centimeter sized robots that will do this so don’t look for your catom based replicator just yet, give them about 20 years for that.
