Sometimes you need to send a message but it is one of those things that you simply just don't want to say. This is usually the time where I fire off an e-mail or a text message, but Digital Cowboy seems to have something different in mind with the Lampex. They seem to think that waving your arms around like a crazed serial killer is a better idea. The Lampex works by first connecting the device to your PC and setting the message you wish for it to display. After that, you simply turn it on and wave it around in the air. Through some magic (or maybe electronic engineering, some consider them the same these days), as you wave the wand it changes the LED's to display the appropriate characters and your message appears. I'd like to see someone attach one of these to a big bird and make it fly over New York displaying, “The end is near!” or something. Come up with your catchy phrases and scare the heck out of someone in the park. Maybe police will adopt these so they can send you a message while they beat you into submission. I can think of a lot of uses for this, but it just doesn't seem practical to use as intended. If you don't want to use your arms to send the message, why not use your bike and attach the Lex to it instead? About Everything USB
