Forget IT — WHAT is

 
Forget IT — WHAT is where it's at. Codenamed "Danza," WHAT is the subject of a hell of a lot of buzz (started with an anonymous tip this morning at about 3AM from a Hotmail account whose headers originated with an IP somewhere in Bangalore, but I've received a half-dozen more from BB readers in the know since). People who've seen Danza/WHAT say that it is a really kick-ass new gizmo whose nature is so heavily NDAd as to be completely opaque, though one private mailing-list message I saw said that it would a) be cheap enough that you could buy one with a relatively small bag of Cuban pesos, and b) would be in the daily round of virtually every adult on Earth in five years. I've posted a couple of interesting diagrams that are purportedly from Danza's patent application above (I knew the USPTO was good for something!) and here's a link to the stupendously cryptic site of 0sil8, Inc., Danza's parent company. Let's hope this doesn't turn out to be another goddamned scooter.LinkDiscuss (Thanks, secretsquirrell!)
