Beamz: The Instrument That Makes Air Guitar Even Nerdier

So, I'm probably a little late to the party on this one, but having watched the full demonstration video of this "music instrument" you can buy at The Sharper Image (of course), I might have to take the rest of the day off to recover. The device itself is nothing more than a MIDI controller with a couple of lights (lasers) attached. You trigger sounds by interrupting the ligh beams with your hands or your cat or your reluctant teenage son, as you'll see in the video. If nothing else, the silly faces the players make should give you your first real smile since you heard the sad news about Pioneer quitting the TV biz.
