  • @R Ahmed. Thanks for the post. Oh yes, it's safe. If it wasn't we wouldn't be able to put it on the market. Basically, the system has a beam guard that monitors the energy path from transmitter to receiver. Should anything come in close proximity of that path, the safety system shuts down the transmission and the device is powered by a back up battery. Re: loss over distance; not really. This other person got it right, it’s like a laser point so the loss of distance is minute.

  • Um, seems to me Facebook is starting to get a little pressure from their Microsoft investor. I wonder if Mark would be making this move if not so closely tied to Google's biggest competitor. I wonder who is really pulling the strings there???
