So that went well... He came into the chat room, dodged all our real questions, unveilved his new product, and got trashed because he wants to protect it with patents, lol. I bet he won't do that again, lol.

Good summary. For the record I was not trashing him, and I am sure there was a misunderstanding/wording that caused that...

It only matters if someone wants to build one, otherwise it's a non issue
