Too often we are trying to invent the wheel all over again, rather than use the tools that are at our disposal to get the job done. With a BB on one end, and a good fast response server on the other, this becomes an almost instantaneous way of getting information. I would love to see some non-commercial applications for this as well... say you send an email to dictionary@clairmail.com with a word in the subject line, and get a definition returned... or encyclopedia@clairmail.com, etc, etc. The application for email services like this is huge. I already use this type of service to track UPS packages, why not a lot more? Why open a browser if you don't need to? -Matt This is a great idea, and we need to see more like it.
