Good idea: let someone else drop christmas present hints to your wife.

Bad idea: Letting anyone from Gizmodo contact your missus.

No offence Haroon, but I don't want my girlfriend knowing that i spend 80% of my life here.

@strider_mt2k: You seem so stoked at the idea, I'll personally drop your wife the hint come holiday season, drop me an email. Boy, do we love our readers at Gizmodo. The gift reminder service is closed to everyone else till further notice :P

I love beam stuff!
I'll have to print that and stick it between the pages of my wife's LIFE magazine come the holidays. ;)

If I'm not mistaken, Mark Tilden of Wowee is a BEAM guy from way back.

This stuff really is quite cool, but I've never gotten a homebrew BEAM bot to work.

Usually it was a case of not enough parts or parts too far out of range or me destroying something accidentally for one reason or another.

I can build stuff from schematics, but I don't have the math or formula retention to do circuit design.

This would be a great gift...for me. :D
