nothing new here, some companies such as Unisys (Convergent) had done this type of thing more than ten years ago for products like these. These products never got a significant foot hold and imo, never ever will become popular compared to the tried-and-true simple to use POT (Plain Old Telephone). Isn't that quite an analogy, no matter what kind of new cooking technique and gadgets come along, the tried-and-true simple frying pan (and the stew pot) is still used world-wide.
