More Idle Thoughts while waiting to get inspiration and motivation to do a sales call:

  Think of all the businesses gone because of new marketplace innovation and new products. Polaroid-Land Camera replaced by digital cameras. The only use of Polaroid is their having sold the name to a company now selling ...digital cameras and products. Or the corner instant printing shop, now vanishing or replaced by shops with quicker copy machines requiring little expertise. Photographic film, disappearing because of the digital chip.  

  Then there is the home computer: it replaces a thousand reference points: watch movies, listen to radio stations from all over the world; order anything, keep track of airlines, use as a phone, read and order books;watch from millions of videos, see your house from outer space or street level, explore planets; physically move cameras on the Eiffel Tower in Paris to scan the crowds, info sources from a million+ areas. And ALL from a one little squarish box. Who would have ever thought of it before? 

  Well, actually, no one did. 

  And it'll likely be like that in the future. 

  How about a product that replaces ten thousand other products? Or a million? Or more? Or...?

  Who would've thought?
