Worst Concept Computer Ever: The Coffee Cup PC

The coming flexible-screen industry is all fun and games until someone actually builds something like this (don't worry: It's still a concept only). The Yuno PC mug is a PC BUILT INTO A COFFEE CUP. It lets you get weather, time, traffic reports and stocks on a touch-screen display, right on the cup. Presumably it runs on "Java." Hahahaha... oh, never mind.

Why is this a bad concept? For those of us who can't live without a coffee mug more than a few inches away all day long, this is an excellent idea, me think ...

I wonder if we could get it to run off of the temperature difference between the coffee and the ambient air...

Toilet PC is something that will save our lives - well the digital toilet!

Upon finishing your use of it, it sends your specimen data over the net to your doctors office. Your doc's computer analyzes the data and if a irregularity is found a email requesting you to set up a appointment is sent!

This is FAR FROM the worst idea ever; actually, I think it's rather smart.
What do people do EVERY morning? Drink coffee. What else do people do EVERY morning? Check the weather, stocks, traffic, etc. This is very useful, in my opinion.

Its always amazing what they can dream up at head office in meetings devoid of any real life testing . Yes men around the boss. Like Dilbert

Wow. our dependency on technology just gets worse and worse everyday. It scares me to think that people would be willing to rely on their coffee cup, to find out about weather and of course, anything that involves money.
Just go on with your day. When i walk outside, i am FULLY prepared for the weather, whether it is raining or sunny.I bring an umbrella anyway. Why do we need to be SOOOO concerned about what is going on in the world, when we can just sit and enjoy our coffee like a simple human being, who enjoys everyday, without relying on computers 24/7? Ya i love my laptop a LOT, but jesus, do we need to be on technology alllllllllllllll the time?
we are going to die of brain tumors when the internet dies. We will suffer,and all the while..
all the natural and un-man made things are all around us..
but we prefer to use our computers and sit indoors and depend on tv
for information.Useful yes, but over the top... absolutely..

this is clever, but seriously. unless you are bill gates with over a trillion dollars and someone who NEEDS to keep up on money and weather..

dont buy this.
Just enjoy things around you without the technology for a change.
Why cant we just rely on ourselves anymore?
