Have you had another idea you’d pay if existed?

1. A device that rings a bell or flashes the lights in any/all rooms of my house if my cell phone is at home and rings. This way I don't have to carry it with me everywhere in the house.

2. A service which lets me know which restaurants have excess capacity and will give me a discount if I come right now.

3. A reasonably priced dependable on-line grocery service that delivers in fly-over country.

4. An email device for senior citizens as easy to use as an iPod.

5. A device that lets you know whether the dishes in the dishwasher are dirty or clean.

6. An open source Windows clone that works.

7. A device that automatically disables any cell phone in any car within 50 car lengths of me and heading in my direction.

[EDIT: Numbers 1 thru 5 were serious. #6 was a pipedream. #7 was a joke, but like James Bond's Austin Martin, I can dream, can't I? You guys are giving me what I deserve for mixing jokes in with the real stuff.]
