And they think people would want to by this?
Call me crazy, but I thought the idea was supposed to be to make products that make consumers lives easier or at least more enjoyable...
This seems to do neither.

YEs, I agree, but I suspet if AOLTW can get their act together a promote well enough what this thing CAN do, most consumers will not be sophisticated enough to realize what they CAN'T do and order it anyway. Or maybe it will become the de facto cable box, effectively locking out the market for really useful devices.

jsteven, all I can say is, look how many people have blithely signed up over the years for AOL to begin with, even though almost any ISP access provides more direct, ad-free access to the internet.

They must think that people are fools. Technophobe has a really good point, though. It's sad. Really sad.

I just thought of something. If we don't do something about this now, you think the future will look allot like Minority Report? :P
