The international builder's show just went down, and among the home automation madness, it was impossible to miss this oven's claim that it can cook a 12-pound bird in 45 minutes. That's 3 hours faster than a standard oven. They say it uses Airspeed technology, but from the diagram and flash animations, I'd say it runs a bunch of hot air over your food, like a hair dryer, to make stuff cook faster. Hmm...microwaved, hairdryed bird?

Very fancy. For me, the end game is this: I'm not sure I'd know how to adopt standard recipes to this new fangled cook-tech. Honestly, I'd settle for a standard unit that emails me when my food starts to smoke, inevitably, like a meteorite. –Brian Lam
