Nope, Saul has his own ideas lab called otherlab. He hasn't been involved in Makani for several years.

The thing we seem to be missing is what was Dan Morrel getting at when he thought they didn't get root? Di he think they just ran adb against the glass and figured out how to talk to it directly via the same calls the mirror api uses? Is there some easier way to "hack" Glass into doing interesting stuff?

Is their any information that confirms this. $3.1 billion is almost .5% of China's GDP. This sounds wrong.

Neat implementation, but hasn't he just made a slightly kludgier version of Device Anywhere?

Someone already did that for us, it's called an IDE. I continue to be horrified by engineering re-write code that already exists.

I tried a box of Kleenx that's sitting on my desk and that worked, so there is something in there.

Doesn't work on "house brands" that use internal number schemes. For example 150480300036 is the UPC-A bar code from a Banana Republic T-shirt with a product id of 637905 but it doesn't exist in their database. Anyone know of somebody trying to deal with these kind of bar code issues?

Just use an E-1 and educate US investors that if they invest in overseas company X then they can get E-1 status.
