Cash Crowdsourcing Turns Up Trumps For ePaper Watch [bbc.co.uk] An electronic paper watch designed by a Canadian entrepreneur to work alongside smartphones has raised more than $3m (£1.8m; 2.2m euros) in less than a week on net funding site Kickstarter.
It is a record for the site which crowdsources cash to fund start-ups.
Eric Migicovsky initially sought $10,000 over a five-week period but the total, six days in, now stands at $3.4m.

"Crowdfunding bill backed by US House of Representatives"
[bbc.co.uk...]
Of course...
"However, critics have warned the measures could lead to increased levels of fraud."
Like the big investors are more savvy, can we say Bernie Madoff?

Nice idea - looks like a Sinclair digital watch with features - downside .. | The firm says that the rechargeable battery will last a week |
