Why?!

So I am reading my regular news outlets using this news thing I have discovered called RSS. RSS stands for something like "Really Simple Syndication / Rich Site Summary" something of that sort. Anyways, it basically takes the news sites and loads them faster because it is just text in an XML format. Anyways, back to my point... I come across this link and I just have to ask myself... WHY?

Don't get me wrong.. I thought about buying it just for the wow factor and how much of a conversation peice it would be.
