So if you get the 2000 dollar prize you get to sit through his CUTCO presentation over dinner.

You get too see him cut a piece of drywall, slice a tomato and make a corkscrew out of a penny.

Nah, don't worry. A day later he posted about how terribly difficult the job was and his earnings don't represent his work. And then a couple weeks later he posted about not liking it when someone says they know more than him, because obviously he knows more than anyone considering themselves an authority.

Didn't see this in the past couple pages:

http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/sigmo-talk-and-understand-in-more-than-25-languages

Translator! You can wear it! Also it apparently knows a bunch of languages?

Anyway, this is awful for several reasons:
  • Requiring a smart phone to connect to, so really it's just an accessory for your smartphone (which probably will be hugely expensive in a foreign country due to roaming).
  • The awful grammar and spelling on the Indiegogo page
  • Broken links and pictures on the page

It just feels kind of scammy to me, too. But hey, the free market is speaking and they've already massively exceeded their goal!

EDIT: My internet is crap and the links aren't broken.
