I've made SO many paper airplanes in my lifetime its just redic.  I'm in for a hacker package, and I can hardly wait!  Shame the beta is sold out.

That's very cool.  I may need one of those.

Heck, if they were available now, I would buy several of them to give as Christmas gifts.

awww man, when I was just a kid, I used to get one of those rothco foam WWII gliders every time we went grocery shopping.  My cousins and I used to light them on fire and crash them...  :uhoh
