why do those things cost $100!?!?!

The real Ambient Orbs cost so much because they're made really well and are hooked into the pager network so they can get updates no matter where they are (no configuration needed). Many people like not having to set stuff up.

well what if I just want something cool looking to put in my room, how much would one of those cost, and where can in find it?

If you want to make a DIY version, google for "Arduino Ambient Orb". It'll take you maybe an afternoon to do and you'll get to learn about building your own hardware too.

this "physical programming" stuff is exciting... especially now that it's accessible without writing assembly code. I ordered the newest Arduino today... woohoo!
