Personally, I'm looking forward to the long rumored but as yet unseen Pentax DWM (Digital Washing Machine). I just want to pile all the clothes I own into it and let the DWM use its 6 segment matrix metering and its next-gen *USM to optimize the temperature, detergents, and level of agitation necessary to ensure my skivies come out exactly 18% gray. It's supposed to be backwardly compatible with all my previous model clothing, too. Dan Scott�I'll see your two and raise you two. (*USM: "Ultra-Sonic-Mixing")
