A soon as she said “meta information”, I knew she is out of touch.
Cool … I hope when we see an actual product it isn’t locked down like a cell phone. Most of the functionality of a product like this would be in the programs written for it by users.
I like the idea and it looks like it could be a very useful device. Just what will happen when phone service providers start broadcasting spam type messages and pop ups for all to see?

Adblock for The Sixth Sense?
I see the application for this “but” it doesn’t meet the questions she initially imposed AT ALL (no change in “behavior?”) and no “sixth sense” at all, only a set of pre-programed responses, not a mind link.
Cyberage is still a few years off. An incremental step, overhyped as usual.

Cant believe what she said at the end… “returning with an implant in 10 years…”???
Well, get ready to be assimilated… Resistance is futile…
I see the level of frustration trying to use this thing as quite high.
Yawn…
Just buy some damned “toilet papers.”
@1 @6 u guys need a mirror.
A very cool concept but one hell of a long way from production.
