Now combine this with Microsoft's Surface product (mentioned in an earlier blog) and the fun will never end. Does anyone know if that brush can be scotchguarded to prevent beer stains? Seriously, Jason has a good point. How would the studios feel if someone bought an episode of Lost for their video iPod and then scanned that into this product with blinking eyeballs as a border only? Is that a violation of IP law? Does this tool record audio as well? If so, seems to be that someone would cry foul. How did Warhol get away with it? Warhol's art was Campbell's Soup best marketing campaign! The copyright owners should be paying artists to use this stuff! Hmmm...another product placement opportunity? The end of "starving artists"? Ok…this is awesome.
