Programmable Soda

Take a soda bottle, add customizable flavor buttons, and what do you get? Ipfini's "Programmable Liquid Container". Each bottle is filled with carbonated sugar water and feature additive buttons on its side (aroma, flavor, color), which allow for up to 32 combinations of soda on the fly.
"Providing choice at the point of consumption creates tremendous advantages for the consumers as well as the manufacturer," noted co-inventor Glenn Wachler.

yeah, especially if they have lousy parents who let them live on the stuff rather than teaching them it's a treat. OH NO, DON'T MAKE PARENTS RESPONSIBLE! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I think it sounds wicked cool :P

I could see a lot of trouble shipping this crap. One of the buttons or something would pop resulting in uselessness. Or some bratty child would pop them all.

maybe instead of another soft drink, they can actually use it in the field of medicine. I remembered hating to get shots and taking medicine when i was young... maybe make the taste more tollerable and add in that "pop that (flavored medication) colored button" and we will have some kids that will not be as afraid to go to the doctors. Do I get my 10%+ royalty when the product launches?

How could you get the flavor to mix evenly without shaking it and having it spray everywhere?

Target: Bob Yes this is the internet. Not everyone here speaks english as their first language. Therefore it is MORE important to use correct grammar as much as possible and not lapse into AOLspeak. Your spelling doesn't need to be 100% correct but please stop writing like a moron and review what you've typed before submitting. Don't just spew your thoughts straight onto the site - think about it. ---Back on topic. What a strange idea. I bet they're counting on everyone to buy the product 32 times to try every combination.

Couldn't the same thing be attained simply by mixing flavoured syrups (common in coffee shops and available in grocery stores) with club soda (also available in grocery stores) and at a far lower cost? Not to mention with more variety. Heck, add some vodka, you've got a much better beverage on your hands.

It's funny how all the people who can't spel attack the grammar police. Bob, apparently it did hurt you because you respond with the two LAMEST ad hominem attacks perpetuated by middle school kids and people who don't know how to be creative...
