	This was heavily advertized this time last year, I have not seen 
it this year. What I heard about it is that the technology was fairly old,
but the time was right now!! The group that developed it was then bought
(ie. - hired) by Epyx computer games company. I don't know what has become
of them since. Epyx is in Redwood City, Ca. USA.

	I have heard that it works as advertised, but have never seen one...
