D: oh that's D: oh I like it .
D: I mean you guys gave me more than I was asking for , so I'm happy
D: because we've got some really marketable features in this .
D: Yeah I think it's good .
D: Good good good job .
B: Mm Pedro can demonstrate the the paging ability .
C: Yeah .
C: So you ha you have like the the base station with um the little button for the where's my remote .
B: Beep beep beep .
D: Uh pla
B: C: The locator function .
D: I'm ha
A: Okay .
D: It's great . That's great . It's a great feature .
B: Um beep beep beep A: Mm it's impressing .
C: Wicked isn't it ? A: So let me get it ,
B: so A: if I press this button B: beep beep beep A: I see . That's pretty cool .
A: Hang on .
B: beep beep beep A: B: be shut up . D: So you can take this ho take this home with you tonight and you can push that and he'll be across town C: B: Beep beep beep A: A: I plan to do that as well .
B: okay . Um no no no tha that's alri
A: So the the two blue are are those for the the it to charge off of in ?
B: Exactly that's exactly what those are for .
A: Ah okay okay .
B: And um there's one other feature that we were debating , but we decided to go against it ,
C: B: is um you could
B: beep beep beep  C: A: B: we were thinking that it might be interesting to have a trigger button here because you have this finger A: Yeah it's the right shape isn't it ?
B: it it's it kinda feels like there should be something there ,
B: but we couldn't figure out what button is important enough to put there .
B: And we we don't wanna accidentally be hitting the power button like that so A: But maybe if you had a trigger plus the scroll then that would get past the the problem of it landing and scrolling ,
B: Mm .
B: Right .
A: 'cause then it would need to be hit on both sides .
B: So maybe in a final design phase we might tweak that a little bit ,
B: but A: Okay .
D: Uh , I can see that .
A: But it's definitely got options for like different types of models and things as well based on that ,
B: Mm-hmm .
A: hasn't it ?
D: Yep I like .
D: Good job .
A: So is that the the final colour scheme as well or ?
D: No no .
B: Oh no this is just what we had to work with at the time .
A: Okay .
B: So we'll leave the colour scheme up to the marketing people .
A: The hmm .
B: B: Careful .
A: It came off .
A: The scroll wheels , a problem with them not being sort of B: C: D: Well I mean of course , I mean A: I don't think the user interface guy wants to touch it anymore .
B: D: My my s my suggestion is we're gonna go go to the silvers and blacks like most of the televisions .
C: A: Mm .
D: You know some blend of silvers and blacks .
B: Beep beep beep . C: A: Okay enough of that .
A: Well i it's cool guys .
A: 'Kay so are we done with the this presentation ?
B: Yeah .
C: Ja .
A: Okay . C: B: A: Now now .
B: D: So you're not gonna find my uh my folder up there
D: I gotta do mine up at the board .
A: Have you ? Okay .
D: Yeah yeah .
D: So  A: Can I not get your get at stuff from your shared folder now ?
D: No it's not in there because I had the computer problem and I I I cou I couldn't create it .
A: Oh I see I see .
D: I couldn't create it in the PowerPoint ,
A: D: and I think I've got this really strange cable .
D: So what I had , basically going from the PowerPoint format , is that
D: uh yeah yeah I like this a lot .
D: Is this one of the tests is to see how we can adapt to s changing situations in the in the meeting room ?
C: Nah .
A: B: D: So what we had is we had the method .
D: That's not how you spell method , is it ?
B: No way .
D: No A_ .
A: D: .
D: So this doesn't go so fast this way .
D: And when I speak about method I speak about the marketing of the product huh .
D: And uh to me with this product we got uh we got basically three things to market .
D: We've got the features ,
D: we have the uh characteristics ,
D: and we have the D: I I don't know what we would call the other part D: what we call you know the the the corp corporate D: Help me .
D: The the corporation stands behind the product , okay .
D: So the features I think D: we got the scroll , we've got the uh the locator , we've got the durability , we've got the dependability ,
C: It fell off .
D: we've got you know the features that make this a unique product . Um
B: Beep beep beep .
D: the characteristics I talk about ,
D: we have reliability , we have comfort , we have ergonomics , we have environmentally s sensitive .
D: Uh and the corporation , we're talking about we're we're a new we're a new company .
D: We're wanting to make a name for ourself .
D: We're wanting you to uh find our product so we're gonna give you a good product at a fair price .
D: One thing I would want to to see is uh is can we can we get a lifetime uh guarantee on this product , a normal use guarantee ,
D: which means that this product , for the for the life of of the life use , if it should have a technical problem , that we could re replace it at no cost ?
D: That was something I would be interested in .
D: Um so yeah
D: without uh going into great details , we have a we have a product ,
D: it has the features and the characteristics , and the background , I believe , to make it marketable I believe at a cost of of of thirty thirty five to to fifty Euros .
D: We're gonna be competitive , and we're gonna we're gonna have a market niche .
D: Um w
A: Do you A: would you a argue that that we're better going for the higher cost than bringing it down into twenty f five as we probably could , but lowering our profit margins ?
D: That that would be uh that would be I think a decision best made by corporate
D: um I I m
D: for my evaluation , based on what our competition is , I th I think that that we can go after this
D: and and and go after more of the uh exclusivity sense than the mass market sense .
A: Mm-hmm .
A: Mm 'kay .
D: But I'm sh I'm sure open to to market this in either direction .
D: But you guys came up with a great product ,
D: and at that cost I think it uh there's nobody else that's putting this this combination of of ingredients together .
D: The only limitations I see to this is that we're focused on television only .
D: Uh that's the only that's the only drawback I see to this .
D: But with all of these other features I think people c one thing I'm I'm hoping for is people are not gonna even notice .
D: There's gonna be somebody going home and say oh sh this thing doesn't work for my D_V_D_ and my but I like these other things , so they keep it , they don't take it back .
A: And we're actually quite open to be able to expand the product for a later version with those features quite simply anyway , aren't we ?
A: Th there's no fundamentally different technology to do that .
D: Well one of one of the thoughts that I had is can can this unit be be produced in a way that makes it upgradable ?
D: You know uh like like a um a sim card in a in a um in a telephone .
A: Hmm .
D: You know is there a card in th can we make a card and so after  C: W we need we need we need s some more buttons if it would to work on some other stuff , but B: Mm-hmm .
D: Mm-hmm ,
D: but you follow what I'm s I'm s
C: We we w yeah
C: we could get another version of it that actually works .
D: Yeah 'cause if if we can make this unit upgradable then we're  C: But uh D: yeah but then we talk about changing the warranty concept and everything ,
D: but that's that was just an idea I had .
D: Uh to me the only additions A: Yeah , the plus there's the the risk of making it unusable as well , or making it less A: b because at the moment it's actually very straightforward to look at all the buttons ,
A: you know what they do , it's very simple , and it just works .
D: Yeah .
D: Yep .
A: Mm there's a risk of that .
D: But anyway that's uh A: Okay so we can talk about finance now .
A: So I have a little spreadsheet for us
A: where A: I I was wondering , you A: when you talked about the fifteen point eight Euros , I was wondering how you came up with that figure ?
B: Well , that was just just our technical team added up the um production costs of the individual units .
D: A: Okay
A: so I have bit of a spreadsheet here for this .
C: Very co very colf colourful .
A: Now
B: Oh .
A: I've made a f few assumptions here in that I'm assuming that our power adaptor we can make for a cost of four Euros ,
B: B: Uh-huh .
A: equivalent to solar cells ,
A: which I think is probably fair considering that we have in-house manufacturing of power adaptors already .
B: Uh-huh .
A: Uh and I'm assuming that the locator beacon ,
A: the you know the D: Mm-hmm .
B: Yeah .
C: beep beep beep .
A: Can be made for A: it sounded different that time A: uh can be made for a similar price to uh an L_C_ display ,
B: Oh , sorry . C: A: uh an uh  A: Uh do you think that's fair coming from a m the manufacturing ?
B: Yeah
B: um I do think we that we we uh don't need the events chip on print , we only need the uh the regular chip on print ,
A: .
B: so there may have been a m miscalculation in there .
A: Okay .
A: Yep .
A: Okay .
A: So we're down to sixteen point four , yeah .
B: And we and we have a single-curved uh A: Is that a single-curved rather than a double-curved ?
B: Uh I think that D: We've got a we've got a curve and a droop .
A: We're not entirely sure what single-curve versus double-cur
D: I don't know whether that .
B: It's single-curved ,
A: You think ?
A: Okay
B: yeah .
A: I'm convinced .
A: But we save one Euro that way , yeah ?
A: So we come bring it down to  Fifteen point four .
B: See it's a little bit more than f single-curved .
B: So yeah it's fifteen point eight ,
B: that's where we came up with it .
D: A: Well hang on .
A: Do don't speak so B: Okay .
A: it's in here , in that A: w do we have any A: we have special form don't we ?
C: Yeah .
B: Yeah we do .
A: So that's yeah .
B: Ah . What do you know .
A: But the the the A: we haven't talked about any special colour though
A: uh I don't th
B: Oh it's a that's not very special , it's pretty A: if we're going for greys and silvers then I don't think we're A: O okay so we're B: If th .
A: Push-button , scroll wheel , we're basically we have uh th
C: We don't A: is this intended to be a button as well or just a scroll ?
C: It's a scroll .
B: That's a scroll .
A: Just a scroll ?
A: It's not one of the scrolls where , for example , with this one you could push it down to be a button ?
B: Uh no we just use it as a scroll .
D: Ooh .
A: Okay
A: then we have fifteen point eight Euros .
B: It was a pretty accurate estimate I would say .
A: It wasn't bad .
C: Yes .
B: Yeah .
C: We're wicked . Awesome .
A: Okay so
A: we're on to the B: S 's kind of s frighteningly accurate .
C: Yeah .
A: We're on to the pat-on-the-back part of the presentation ,
A: where we have a look at the criterias th that Paul the criterion criteria that Paul has has given us , and we can use that to tell How's it going ?
A: Anyone got any thoughts ?
B: What ?
A: How how have we done today ?
B: I think we did pretty well .
C: Yeah .
A: I think we did pretty well too .
A: That looks pretty spectacular .
D: No , I think we come up with a with a attractive marketable um product and and concept .
A: Any other chang uh thoughts ?
A: Okay so th th what about um room for creativity ?
D: C: That was mm-hmm A: Is it the .
B: Sh I think there was plenty of room .
C: Yeah .
A: I A: I think we we ended up being quite creative there .
B: We got a couple innovative i
D: Yeah
D: well we we we kinda broke  B: Couple innovative ideas .
D: we kinda at least adjusted every every criteria they gave us
D: because we d we still have the the teletext capability in this thing right ,
A: Mm .
C: No .
B: Mm-hmm .
D: we raised the price of it , we've added two t new technology to it .
C: Yeah .
D: So you know you know if this thing flies then we've we've adjusted or broken every every idea they gave us .
A: Not every idea necessarily ,
C: Basically .
A: it's still a remote control .
B: D: Yeah yeah yeah yeah .
A: Uh no
C: A: yeah but we did we did break with the specs a little bit I guess ,
A: but the uh D: But I like D: I mean when I say we have we had I believe we have room for creativity 'cause w this is we did it .
A: 'Kay leadership , what do we report back to the bosses ?
A: No th th I think they were r reasonably flexible with us over the whole changing the specs thing .
C: It was more of a teamwork thing then really leadership based project was
B: Yep .
A: I agree .
C: Teamwork .
D: Cohesive yeah .
A: Synergy .
D: Yes synergistic yeah .
C: B: There was a lot of synergy .
A: Teamwork ,
A: yeah he is uh .
D: Yeah .
A: What did we think of the meeting room ,
A: I guess is an important thing here .
B: These cables suck .
A: Mm .
A: Yeah , this falls off
C: Yeah .
A: and uh the white board worked really well without any pro
B: Yep .
C: And that's B: Yeah .
C: D you must have very long shirts .
C: That's way far down lapel mic .
A: Mm-mm , lapel .
C: Lapel lapel lapel .
A: Wha okay , oh , alright .
B: Lapel .
C: That's almost a crotch mi cr A: That's it's down , it's quite close .
D: You know you know what they're gonna have on the recording in there from that microphone is your lunch digesting you know th A: Keep it , keep it calm .
C: Oh dear oh dear .
A: Oh dear . No more pizza for me .
D: A: So yeah the the pen came in alright
A: and it's a little uncomfortable to use but I guess it works .
C: 'Cause this is you were using it o upside down .
C: Still that B: That's our boss .
D: A: Nah , I'm I'm not convinced of that at all .
C: A: I've been wor I've been wondering about that all day ,
A: but see these look like they're A: that looks the oth that looks like it would be that way around ,
C: Use them like that .
B: Pedro's right .
A: but it feels more comfortable , wh what you call upside-down .
B: Pedro's right .
A: I don't care .
A: Uh okay so that data might be slightly invalid .
C: A: What new ideas have we found ?
B: Oh wel
D: New ideas f uh for the product or for the the the the environment or D: what are we ta
A: Well let's do both then .
A: Uh for the product ?
B: Well we had the favourites list , and the scroll bar , and we have the cradle , and the r uh remote call feature .
D: Oh .
A: Yeah we came up with quite a bit .
C: Bunch of new ideas .
A: And for the meeting room , Has anyone got any more C: Yeah comfortable headsets would be nice .
A: Yeah less sore on the ears .
D: Well I I mean C: Mm .
D: clearly remote control microphones would be the would be a nice solution to all these cables ,
D: but I'm sure that there's there's some justification for these things that I don't know about .
D: And of course I did not have so much fun with my computer this afternoon .
D: It's not been uh it's not been cooperating so well ,
B: D: but I don't think that's the
D: that's avoidable .
C: Coulda been worse .
A: Okay so A: Are the costs within the budget ? C: Mm n no .
D: No .
A: Nope .
A: Oh hang on it really A: that's something we that the costs were under twelve fifty Euros .
A: No requirements are changed .
A: We're still under twenty Euros to build , so we're good .
C: A: And the costs within the budget ?
A: Not the original budget , but they are now .
A: Is the project evaluated ?
A: Mm I think so yeah ,
A: then celebration as it says .
C: Hooray .
D: Okay .
C: Free coke provided at the cafeteria .
B: All right .
A: Oh I don't know how that got there .
A: Uh anyway .
C: Who wrote that one ?
B: A: Thank
B: D: So we need to close this meeting ,
