Beaming Vacuum Cleaner Printer Friendly Version
You might have heard of the fact that "beaming" (like in "Star Trek") has been discovered for very small particles?
Well, the logical application would be to invent a vacuum cleaner using this feature. You could have a tiny divice (without dragging behind you the huge machine that always gets stuck somewhere between your furniture), and in doesn't matter if the technology isn't perfect yet or still involves some risks (just as in "The Fly"), because if the molecules of the dirt you are trying to remove get mixed up in some way, no one cares.
Reward: A free beaming vacuum cleaner.

Closed captioning for movies Printer Friendly Version
My wife and I have impaired hearing. We watch TV with closed captioning. We do not go to the movie theater, because we miss some of the dialog, especially whispers, fast repartee, and accents.
I propose some sort of closed captioning for movie theaters for those people that need it. Remember the cardboard glasses for 3-D movies? Maybe the captioning can be shown such that hearing patrons don't see it, but hearing impaired can read it with special equipment.
Reward: Fresh popcorn again in the company of fellow movie fans.

Counters for Restaurant Pagers Printer Friendly Version
How many times have you been waiting to be seated at a crowded restaurant with one of those pagers they give you and have no idea how many people are ahead of you. My idea is a cheap lcd counter built in or stuck on to the pagers they give you displaying the number of customers in front of you.
Reward: Free food at all participating restaurants.
