Sounds like an exciting product for a niche market.

Im seriously considering this.

I wish the price point was a little more affordable. *reminder* do a savings plan write up on fuel*

B*A*M*F, design gets chopped from the raster only to be outsourced to more competent design houses. Design is still very important to US companies, not necessarily the consumer. Look at Target, it spends millions on design, marketing, and brand identity only to sell millions of generic, faceless Chinese imports. This is why Target does well, the opposite is why K-Mart tanked.

Brian, you sound like a fellow Industrial Designer. At this point, design and engineering know-how are all that separates the US from much of the world.

I’m hoping the American business community doesn’t forget the lessons of the past few boom/bust cycles and forget that spending money on design up front is the cheapest way to a better product on the showroom floor. Design tends to be one of the first things on the chopping block when hard times come knocking.
