I thought the enTourage eDGe looked pretty sweet, until I watched the commercial. I kept waiting for them to offer me a free Slap-Chop if I ordered one in the next 20 minutes.

This video for the Qualcomm Mirasol device is just BAD. And by that I mean I watched it 10 times because I couldn't stop laughing.
Let me summarize for you.
- You should care about this display because it is actually going to bring some consumer value to you when it comes to market. (So in English, what you're saying is that I should care about this device now because I will care about this device later?)
- The 4 things that are going to drive the difference for you are:
-
- Incredibly ... low ... power. (She corrects herself but I had to laugh when I heard it.)
- It's color, which is important because we live in a color world. (Wait, but I'm color blind ... WHAT WORLD DO I LIVE IN?!?)
- You'll see butterflies in here. That is how we create color. (Wow, that explains the incredibly low power.)
- ... (4? Hello? 4 are you there? Can someone please find 4 and tell them that we're on?)
Having said that, wow this device looks awesome. Good job Qualcomm! But all she had to say was: Look at this folks. Full color. Full motion. No back-lighting, Boom. You're gonna love my nuts.
