Your Last Straw: Reusable Drinking Straw

There are quite a few of these already on the market - not sure why it needs kickstarted. http://www.thinkgeek.com/homeoffice/kitchen/e59c/?srp=1 or http://www.amazon.com/Endurance-Stainless-Steel-Drink-Staws/... for starters.

Personally, I'd lean for the titanium one. I've got one of the titanium sporks, and it's totally flavorless, which makes it quite a bit better for, e.g., stirring lighter teas. Stainless steel has a bit of a flavor that comes through with anything light.

This was my first reaction too. What I'd like is research into the application of these straws? Do most of them stay in first-world countries? Or are these in wide use in third world countries where I'd expect the most need for these straws? Anyone has more info on this?
