I'd definitely have to agree with the article, it must be cheap and standardized before it's useful to me. Once that happens though, this can be amazingly handy.
I don't really understand why it's not cheap, the basic concept is just two coils of wire as far as I know. There has to be something I'm missing that makes it expensive, though I have no idea what.

- devicenull 17y agoI suppose that's a possibility, though I saw these in the store today for $100. That's an absurd amount of royalties if that's the case. It was also in a Target, so I'd imagine they already have the scale part down.
