Hi Brian You should probably be aware that the company you refer to sells 1 million mobile phones every single day of the year including Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. I would not think that "making videos rather than products" really applies in this case :-) They have around 15 thousand people working in R&D. The video is a "7 years from now" future vision from the Cambridge Nanoscience Centre where they just built a $60 millon nanotech research lab. The way to achieve something is to set yourself a Big Hairy Goal. I'd say that they just did exactly that. -- Morten Hjerde http://sender11.typepad.com ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
