I would be interested to know how one connects to their "cloud"? Do I need an "Evaporation Adapter" for my computer to send to their cloud? And do I need a "Rain Collector" to receive from it? I suppose I also need the computer to be outside exposed to the elements -- putting it under a brolly would interfere with incoming rain from the cloud ... Plus I suppose it would not work very well at all in the desert, but downloading would be very high bandwidth in the rainforest (or during monsoon season). :) -- The fact that there's a Highway to Hell but only a Stairway to Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic volume.
