Saw that announced on Boing Boing...woo-hoo! I think I will order one
sometime soon. That's a pretty good idea - if you want one, you have to buy
one for someone else, too. 

Speaking of cool MIT projects, I was reading Good magazine during lunch, and
they made mention of the MIT D-lab project. Pretty cool - they try to come
up with cheap ways of doing low-tech stuff for developing countries:

I think that Worldchanging book may have made mention of this, too, but I
can't remember.
