I have not watched the show much but did watch it tonight.
My thoughts on a few of the inventions.
The rest room privacy thing- great idea, if this chick can get a patent on it it will be worth millions. This is not some kind of genius invention. The is a simple cheap way to solve a common problem. Sometimes those are the best inventions.
child saftey seat- well lets see if it works. I think there is a good chance this thing might not work. If it does work better than the current saftey seats then the amount of money this will make is staggering.
the doll that speaks african, spanish, and english- I dont like it. Why not make it 10 languages so that every ethnicity is covered with this doll? I want my kids toys to be toys, not political statements.
The traveling gym- This is one of those inventions I think that needs to be refined and the 50K might be a help in gettting all the kinks worked out. The biggest thing I worry about here is that in the past few years a lot more hotels and such are putting in gyms, reducing the need for this product. If this came out 10 years ago I would be a lot more excited about it.
Anyways post your thoughts on what inventions you think are best and the ones you hate.

None of the inventions are worth the 1 mill.
Is a restroom clip really needed? How many broken doors are there?

Yes it is needed and is a big problem here. My guess is that people that travel a lot will get one. They have to use a lot of public bathrooms and dont want people busting in on them. These would probably be sold in a catalog that caters to people that travel a lot, like the ones on the airplaine. People that go to bars a lot might also buy them, the stall doors are really bad in most bars. I would venture to guess this problem is much worse here in the states than in canada.
As far as these not being million dollar ideas ... I just saw a show where the guy that invented the dog house that is shaped like an igloo made over 20 million off that. Trust me when I say if the car seat actually works it would make a hell of a lot more than that.

I watched this show, and it seems that almost everyone comes up to the judges with a sob story, I realize that some of them are legi but it gets old really quick.

You don't seem to understand American television. Every single reality show's cast is a sob story. Home makeover? I remember when they used to just change the inside of a few people's homes. Now they have to tear down, rebuild, and decorate a 3 story complex that puts most millionaires to shame.
And does anyone care to elaborate on the the inventions he mentioned? Rather than just review them?

Well guys, hate to say I told you so but .... the child seat won and the guy won the million $$
|
basically all 4 finalists got hooked up by big companies, so it doesnt really matter who won or lost, except for a bit of money
