The problem is that research guys at University aren't really interested
in talking about what's commercially viable, but rather what might be
physically possible assuming we can ignore several current (and
significant) limitations.
Even one of the guys on this team said that it would be at least 10
years before they even start to think of prototypes, whereas the IBM
team has something in the labs to play with *right now*.
