I think Option 2 would be a pretty solid gimmick for toy creation too.
If the little guy changes spheres in the movie ONCE, then that means they can just sell the little droid/toy head with 3 wheels, and tell you to supply your own ball.

The man clearly just doesn't like talking to people (much less reporters).

Isn't that the wrong round?http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/syste…

ahh, ok, so that took me a while to decipher. (I went all over the board with that one). It looks like that total cost is in thousands

How did you get that number?
I see somewhere between $766 and $1289 per case of 100. So best case:
$7.66/round * 3900(fixed) rpm = $29,874 per minute

Mario Cart, Monster Hunter, Zelda(s) - and back-compatibility with Wii stuff (e.g. wario for parties), but HDMI — that's what it took to push me over the edge.

Also, they're pretty damn cheap (imo) these days:

Even more if you're willing to try ebay.

Wait, people in the US actually bought the 3DS?!

This is either:
1) bored friday-trolling
2) a lost soul looking for meaning (on a military blog!?)

'Affirming the consequent' I believe!
... it seems to happen a lot on the internets.

I'd like to see a more "realistic" number, something where time dilation is still manageable. It'd be a shame to see the entire universe end before you were able to use up your warranty.

This.
