Longer than 30ft, but shorter than around the world?

wifi is mostly 200-300 yards
bluetooth is supposedly 30ft but newer bluetooth chipsets handles up to 100 yards i think.. pretty much depends on how much power you can give the bluetooth chip.

Booyess. If the bottom screen is touchscreen it should be a keyboard. Is the bottom screen touchscreen?

I was wondering the same. I actually hope it is not a touch screen. But it would make more sense if it were though just by looking at the screen. But too small for fingers to type or touch small keys.

This idea is ingenious. Utilizing the touch screen to actually send images to others sounds fun and new. If it reaches across long distance, that'd be great depending on the amount. I bet that when more more details come about, it'll be all the more better.

Never gets worse, always improvements so far.
