re: I predict that within a year of this thing shipping, these devices will be ubiquitous

I've heard this Story before.
The wide-eyed wonder
The amazing technology
The breathless press releases
The predictions it will "change everything".
Everyone will need one, or three.
The only problem will be ramping up production fast enough to be FirstToMarket, to meet the exploding demand.
It will make us healthy, and save energy, and solve Third World poverty. Empower the masses. Maybe cure acne and bad breath.

This reminds me so much of satellite phones.

I predict I'll put the Segway in my Museum of Amazing Technology That No One Bought. It'll fit in nicely, right beside the Globalstar phone.
