Last night watching the Science Channel (or I think it was) they had a demonstration of the Morrison Digital Trumpet. It sounds pretty good as the clip below shows, however it can also be programed as other instruments, even an acoustic piano.

Don't run out to buy one, unless you have around $2500 to spare laying around.

The evening keynote speech at the Killer App Expo in Fort Wayne, Indiana, by Ray Kurzweil. If your interested in the exponential growth taking place in medicine, biology, computers and information technology (IT) then you will enjoy this video.

It is quite long, almost an hour and a half, so you may need to set aside some time to watch it later.
