        If Microsoft and Apple cannot pull it off properly, I am dubious we're less than 5 years from the first adequate model.

        Haha, Maybe. But the whole point of people like Paul and YC is that big companies arent always the best innovators.

        That's a bit of a stereotype - some big companies work hard to presereve the innovative spirit. And resources count.

        sure but I wasn't pointing out the stereotype, just the facts. Apple and MS seem behind vs Google, Amazon, IBM, etc

        Neither of whom have managed to pull the robo-butler thing off in an useful way yet. And it's not 5-pers startups.

        i dunno. Hard to improve on @Wunderlist or @basecamp for to-do lists. Feels like a crowded market anyway.
