I was just going to say the same thing... Yeah, I figured you would - since you were with me when we saw it :-)

Pininfarina also designed some of the Vidikron projector cases.
Just watched some of the video. At 1:40, the guy pushes a button, it doesn't respond, his finger hovers for a moment, and then he lowers the finger. I guess he didn't really want that choice after all. That is not pizzazz, it's pissass.
As for the flavors not being separate, hey, I've got this unbelievably spiffy audio system that can play CDs, music channels, Pandora, et cetera... only thing is, when you switch from one to another, the first one doesn't stop playing until you're ten seconds into the new one. [Difference is that you could get past this with audio, but with taste it mixes into the entire drink. What a stupid idea.]
I was just reminded that we saw one of those almost two years ago at a Hometown Buffet -- the one time we've ever been. It was strange to use. It did not respond every time, as shown.

Mmmmm, Pininfarina also did Fiats.... F-I-A-T Fix It Again Tony, or Feeble Italian Attempt at Transportation.... Good catch. But since Pininfarina is responsible for the body style, and not the mechanics, I don't think we can blame that on Pininfarina.

I find this thread hilarious We know, you still prefer to get your drinks in the old glass bottles that required you to pay a deposit on the bottle

I personally prefer a can of Coke that has been buried in ice all day. That is the best.

Is that guy alive?
If Coca Cola wanted to pump up the product, they should have selected someone that isn't dry as dust to do the video....
Lame......

But I recently found they have ruined the glass bottles that are still available. They finally changed from real sugar to corn syrup.

Was the video in slow motion? BSquare and Microsoft should be embarrassed to have their name on this thing. Seriously... in the days of capacitive touchscreens and 60fps 3D video, this is the best they can come up with for a flashy new product? Found a link that says development started in 2009... but still...
