I just saw a commercial for this on TV, not sure if it's been sent out to
the lab list yet. Looks pretty cool though. They use markers for tracking,
but the videos look pretty smooth. Not sure if the handheld gaming audience
has the patience to print out all these markers and manipulate them
frequently, but I guess we'll see!

Neat demo ad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUxSwsy3PZo

And an interesting, although not exactly ringing review:

Hope everybody is having a good weekend
