that was hella-cool! I saw a blurb about this on engadget (i think) but never the entire video.

and of course I've been using "g-speak" for years LOL!

Pretty cool, I have to admit. Every time I see something like this though, I think it would be perfect for analysts and other such work. Pretty cool for games too.

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

I've been waiting for a production version of this for years! I dabbled with developing a primitive version of this style of navigatable envornment last year. I am a HUGE supporter of spatial navigation. I truly hope to see more like this in the future.
