[EEG] Fwd: Emotiv Developer Program : SDK & Headset Available Now

[Mitch Altman]

$10,000 ??!!  I was thinking, like, $500.  I agree that giving them money to do free R&D for them is not worth it.  If we could get one for free, it would be easy enough to see what signals are passing back and forth between the hardware and software -- if we could get one for free...
