    See, I was hoping for a meme mashup of "Will It Blend?" and "lolcats."

    That's not true. I love cats.

    But what happens if you attempt to blend the blender parts? Does it rip a hole in the space-time continuum wide enough to drive a Delorian through?

    We already know that the Blendtec requires 1.21 giggawatts to reach 88 mph for blending perfection.

    @tawnieknight: I'd stack my 10 yo blendtec up against just about any other blender in terms of build quality and, especially, motor performance. The vitamixes tend to weigh in heavier, but have less power. Of course, my BT is older, and it seems like the gap in target audience has narrowed...

    So, help me out: Why did Sony release this thing, again? Does Sony have a quota on stupid decisions per year and this was needed to break a new record?

    The device seems like a nice idea in concept, but they have done absolutely everything wrong. It is poorly constructed, does not include the additional pad, no word on ways to convert existing UMD software, it costs way too much money ... The list goes on and on.

    Wait! I've got it! They decided to put all of their stupid decisions into a single device, and from this point forward Sony will only make brilliant machines! Oh, if only it were true ...
