Fieldforceapp.com dev team; sorry, not using real names 'cause we haven't burned the boats yet & still have day jobs where it's not clear at all if we're allowed to be having this much fun developing for iPhone and Rails.

Big change since v2, congratulations. Any plans to commercialize? Would like to see this applied to athletic team performance monitoring.

Thanks for publishing. Did you look into generating JPG or PNG instead of SVG?

Thanks for the AMA. You haven't answered the hardware related questions in this thread yet, so I'll try: do you think you'll see the day when YC funds a hardware startup that develops custom ASICs or semi IP for licensing? If so, what type of startup would be a good fit for YC?

> it will be only practical to deploy in dense urban areas in my view

Docomo has an eye towards an initial roll-out in time for the 2020 Olympics, and the development of a 'phantom cell' user plane makes a lot of sense given the device density Tokyo. The MIMO beam forming looks like a huge challenge.

Glad to see Docomo moving the goal post forward, though!

Really solid work, I was surprised to see how complete this is, especially compared to Blender. I need to render some scenes soon, importing existing OBJ's and adding new materials. I was going to be using Blender, I'll first give clara.io a try!

One question, sent a ticket already but wouldn't mind an HN bump... I couldn't get 'Render > Render Current Pass' menu option to show? Kinda miss that big green "render now" button.

$12k??? is there no way to prototype an injection mold for less money? I'm trying to make something like the Xbox Kinect housing, for example.
