PRESS RELEASE (FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE)
MiracleSight: Your Magical Mirror - The latest iSight Toy
Munich, Germany - March 2nd, 2004. It's your Magical Mirror! It's your Screen Savior! It's the latest Toy for your iSight! (And it works with other cams, too!) Boinx Software releases Boinx MiracleSight Screensaver for Mac OS X.
What does it do?
Using the iSight mounted on top of your display, MiracleSight mirrors what is in front of your computer. It watches and if it detects motion, it reacts by drawing bubbles where the motion is happening, playing a sound (e.g. a GarageBand loop) or speaking a phrase of your choice using Mac OS X speech synthesis.
Powerful
"Wow!" said an innocent bystander, who asked to remain anonymous, after being accidentally exposed to Boinx MiracleSight at a private screening. "You really did it this time." What exactly he meant by that is unclear, as he had to be removed from the scene by medical staff from the nearby psychological clinic because he couldn't stop himself from dancing in front of the demo machine and setting off that really annoying drum roll GarageBand loop. When dragged away, he was heard to mumble "I got to get me one of these, no matter what the cost" under his breath.
Free of charge
"Fortunately, the good fellow won't have to spend his last dime on MiracleSight", says Oliver Breidenbach of Boinx Software, "because it can be downloaded from our web site and be used free of charge." Go to http://www.miraclesight.com to get your copy.
