My favorite cartoon character growing up was the sly Jerry from Tom & Jerry fame, but after seeing the in-action video, I somehow have doubts that even he could survive an encounter with the Better Mousetrap.
Look at that thing! It's got solenoid valves, controllers, indicators, circuit boards, and a pneumatic actuator. And while I don't know what half of those things do, I certainly know that they catch and slaughter lil' mousies.
For Jerry's sake, I'm hoping that Tom doesn't read Gizmodo tonight. [Telovation]
